A love so forlorn and so lost A hopeless and helpless love Hunters poach her heart While I slumber behind like a watchdog Should she stray I nudge and guide Trailing on her skirt tails in the moonlight A fools requiem chasing a lunar phantom Dreamer's scenery, doomed to forget I pray for empathy but do not embrace it Resolve long from forgotten Ever the faithful companion As I trail behind in field of forget me nots Collecting the pieces To put her back together again

The Watchdog
A love so forlorn and so lost A hopeless and helpless love Hunters poach her heart While I slumber behind like a watchdog Should she stray I nudge and guide Trailing on her skirt tails in the moonlight A fools requiem chasing a lunar phantom Dreamer's scenery, doomed to forget I pray for empathy but do not embrace it Resolve long from forgotten Ever the faithful companion As I trail behind in field of forget me nots Collecting the pieces To put her back together again
This has two forms. Can be taken literal as a canine companion or pet and how they provide great emotional recovery or therapy or can be seen as being a friend for someone and keeping them going
