Protected

Were you my protector? Perhaps.
Yes, I can see you in that light; as    
My companion, and the one holding
Me tight, your arms a protective
Circle, you by my side, caring and 
Guiding. Protecting me, you, my
Champion always by my side. You
Were my protector. Yes, and my
Companion, my friend, my lover
My beloved. Yes, you protected me. 
Your love protected me. It was your
Care, caring that was my amulet.
Your love, my talisman, mine, it was
Yours. I protected you as best I
Could as long as it was possible, 
And you protected me, looked out
For me as best you could as long
As possible, but now, it is your
Memory that's here to protect me,
Guide me, a memory of love, our
Love, encircles me, holds me in
Its protective circle. Your memory
Is my protector, as I remember you,
I now protect you, your memory.
That is what love and care and 
Caring does. Were you my protector
And, yes, was I yours? That's love.
