You don't even know

While I wait for you to need sleep
I wait on my own to be free.
Once you are gone I can relax, breath free.
Once again.. welcome… to me.

You cry out at night.
You scream in your sleep.
You fight unseen foes,
You are hard to keep.

I will always be here
I will always protect
I will always look forward
I will never reject

You.
