The Watcher
A watcher, is that all you are?
No, he is more than that, by far.
Dark and murky is this man's past,
His knowledge, used for good at last.
If you could see, into his past land,
Then maybe, you could understand.
Why now he aids in his own way,
To rid us of demons, day after day.
He never thinks first, of himself,
His feelings, behind, left on the shelf.
He'd give his life, the Slayer to save,
Yet to look, you'd not call him, brave.
An inner strength and hidden power,
His darkness, sometimes threatens to devour.
Drawn on and harnessed, it will be as it should,
This side, left alone, it's for your own good.
So think on this, when you look at this man,
Look a little deeper, than maybe you can.
Maybe then, you would see, the gleam in his eye,
No longer your question, a watcher, man, why?
His strength, is his knowledge he brings to the fight,
More powerful than many, a warriors might.
Encased in this body, so kind and serene,
For this man is Giles, the best watcher that's been!
