Like a bad dream you can't wake from

Thought I'd try a different way of writing. Here goes:

It wasn't supposed to to happen like this...

"Is this Emily Thompson?"

We were supposed to be happy...

"This is Tommy Parker of the Chicago Police Department. I'm sorry to tell you this, but your husband's been in a car accident..."

We were going to share our lives together...

"Ma'am, we had trouble locating his next of kin. Did your husband have any family here in Chicago. We like to inform the families when things look as though they are going... badly."

We were going to live...
