Family
Staring at the TV,
Fighting waves of fear,
Never feeling certain
My husband will be here
I’m a cop’s wife
Knowing that it’s likely
He will come home to me
But having ever-present dread
That harm may come to him
First there are the hours
He spends away from home
Perfecting his profession
And sharpening his skills
Then there are the late nights
He’s answering a call
And the family interrupted
Because the nature of the job
But through all the disruptions
Of a never normal life
I know he and fellow officers
Are keeping the streets safe
Though there is frustration
I’m proud as I can be
My dedicated love so true
Is my hero dressed in blue
I’m a cop’s wife

The tempo was violated, no matter how well intentioned the line was, as a writer it took away from what you wanted to say. Or, perhaps, since this is the essence of the poem, "I'm a cops wife" could be brought out in other ways.
My man's out on the streets in darkness.
I'm fearful for his life.
I'm scared a crime will take him;
Though, I'm proud to be his wife.
Was this haiku/rap poetry? :o)
