We are always searching for home

In the end
this is what I was.

I was someone
you could always come to

with a question or silence
at three in the morning -

you'd find me there.
watching your sleep,

being protective of you.
Like a loyal dog.

    hmm. That phrasing in the final line. Am I wrong to sense a bitter taste? ~
