My Savior Poem by Jessica Beatty

I met you in a dream
I loved you even then
My angel
My savoir
You saved me from myself
You breathed your sweet baby breath into the depths of me
The dark and quiet place
Where I saved the horrific memories
Now of another time and place
I faced my inner evils
I won the war within me
No more blood shed here
No more broken soul
No more agony
No more dispair
I mended the pieces of my shattered heart
The only real pain I can foresee
Is you growing up and leaving me.
