Doppleganger
When shadows close in
I feel the warmth of your words
I know they're untrue
Just a reflection of what I want to hear
When silence disconnects us
The fraction of hate displaces
All source of light
You're just another fake
Trying to take my place
Steal my pride
And smear it in lies
I don't have time for this
Just take what you will
And leave me the fuck alone
You'll never be better than me
The dopple is always weak
Just an imperfect clone of a shattered man
Another nightmare
In the precipace of light
I'll fucking end our life
If you return to my mind
I don't usually enjoy poetry
I don't usually enjoy poetry that doesnt rhyme, only because rhyming is my style but this one is well written and i understood and enjoy the meaning behind it. Great work.
Thank you so much, I'm glad
Thank you so much, I'm glad you could find appreciation in it. I usually do have some sort of rhyming structure in my poems/songs, this one is an odd one out.
I Hear This Poem
"...leave me the fuck alone..." Confession: I was thinking about dopplegangers yesterday or the day before and thought the phrase with fuck in it - just this morning. Damn I'm as jammed up as the character in this poem. And I think we all are issuing eviction notices. - ;D ~a~
