But I know he is

In the background,      
My backs covered;      
Not every syllable watched over      
but enough words ingested to      
satisfy my soul.      
     
A safe distance unseen.      
Free to choose my own direction,      
Our interests shared.      
My happiness put first.      
     
A watchful eye,      
If I should fall, (and I do often),      
soft landings he would create;      
Taking the hit on himself;      
My wellbeing paramount.      
     
This isn't what dreams may come,      
but if it was, He would rescue me;      
As I would him, if roles reversed.      
My white knight, the protector of      
all I hold dear to my heart.      
     
In my corner,      
Knowing he's there      
Makes me happy.      
My silent bodyguard      
Wrapping me up and carrying me    
away within his invisible touch.      
     
He isn't here,      
But I know he is.
