Mental Doppelganger

10-25-2012

He is my mental doppelgänger
His thoughts are one with mine
I can feel the words leave from his lips
Because I see them in my mind

All that talk of mixed emotions
Did not accompany my cries
Because I knew just what he needed
And what he needed was more time

More time to heal both broken hearts
So we could leave all baggage behind
But we both were falling far too fast
Crippling fear forced us to rewind

So I stand here staring at a stranger
Who once gazed into my eyes
And told me “You are my mental doppelgänger.
Your thoughts are one with mine.”
