The Silent Observer

Here is another legend for you.
Some say it’s false,others say it’s true.
Some say they have seen him,the silent observer.

A creature with a lonely heart and eerie looks.
When people notice him,they lock their doors.
But does he truly mean any harm?

They say he grew up on a farm.
When he was human,he observed the cows.
And chased away all the crows.

When he passed away,his body gone away.
He carried that habit with him.
And he silently observed the people all around.

Some scream when they see him.
But he’s really just lonely.
Wouldn’t you too if you could observe only?

They say he doesn’t appear on pictures,as he’s not human.
Yet his shadow guides him at night.
When he checks over you as you sleep,making sure you are okay.

It may sound creepy,but bear with me.
He actually cares a lot.
And spends his afterlife making sure people sleep well.

And maybe tucks them in aswell.
The forest he lives in is full of green.
And sometimes,he walks out of it to hear the birds sing.

If you let him close,he’ll gladly push you on the swing.
And take you under his wing.
Now,you see,he does care.

Even if his afterlife wasn’t fair.
When you sleep,he’s there,tucking you in.
And then disappears into the shadows.

The silent observer is as kind as can be.
He will be nice to you if you let him be.
And will help you in danger if you accept him.

Is he cruel,is he evil?
No,so abandon those thoughts medieval.
When he was human,he was loved well.

In his afterlife,an outer shell.
Tell me honestly, would you trust him?
Or would you shove him away?

At night,him and shadows play.
I believe you will meet one day.
Untill then,take care of yourself all the way.

When you do meet,it will be a lovely day.
