The Protector Poem by Brute da Poet

look over there
the thing that just saved your life
just slipped into the shadows
ominous yet with good intentions
what are the true motives
of this mysterious being
does money guide it into your life?
does debt drag it by the neck to cross your path?
is it an enemy with intentions of a worse fate in store?
some could call it a guardian angel
or an evil shadow
well sorry to kill your beliefs
but I am the shadow
and no
money or any strong feelings guided me to you
but it was the concept of self preservation
for I see myself through you my friend
and know this while on the path of life
I will always have your back
until you return and complete me
so I can return to my form of divinity
so farewell
.......... little brother
