Truth???

"That is life for you. Someone always waiting for someone who never comes home. Always someone loving something more than that thing loves them. And after a while you want to destroy whatever that thing is, so that, it can't hurt you any more"

This is something that I read as a part of my English curriculum when I was in 7th standard. These are lines from a story the Dragon and the Lighthouse. I don't know why I was pretty much stuck by these lines....
Now I realize why??

Is it the truth or is it just a piece of my fractured imagination!!
I dunno!!
Still searching for answers........
