newlywed

I wake up to warbles, calm morning becoming startled, for there is a stranger in my bed

I try my best to remember, but my brain remains bewildered and fettered, and all I can sense is dread

I lock myself in the bathroom, put my contacts in and exhale my anxiety, then talk to myself in the mirror

"There's no need to worry, though it's true your memories are fuzzy, you'll march in there and demand that he make them clear."

While my confidence is at a high I rush back in, met with an innocent derpish grin, and recollect with relief, it is my husband instead!
