Savior

Ever the pessimistic one,
Residing in a hopeful shell.
Body betrayed by soul,
A soul failing to see its' potential.
Writhing in perceived agony,
Feeling the world against it.
Looking for a savior
(All the while)
Denying a savior's existence.
Self-proclaimed failure,
Grasping prejudiced protections,
It lives in deepening darkness.
But I always knew
Just who you were.
You're the beauty in this chaos,
The conclusion of confusion.
Too bad your savior never came
Or was that always the plan?
Tentative tendrils reached
For something completely unreal.
Tapping out a code in searching,
Did you find my code the same?
Of course, it doesn't matter anymore.
Beneath a battered shell
A beautiful soul resides.
Some days are an agony copy,
The echoes of days before.
But you're still here for me,
I'll still be here for you.
My inspiration, my fix.
If only I could be...
So true as you.
