even with a lack of talent
i feel as though i am a fraud
perhaps a mistaken universe swap?
what was the parallel life i was torn from
where these opportunities shouldn't come so easy
to someone who always lets them pass
and who is the other me,
the one that would take chances in stride
and breathe easy in a light they embrace
i know it's just a phase
and my life has only begun
but when it's all i've ever known
i can't imagine how i'd be without it
maybe one day i'll wake up back in my place
and my other back in theirs
or maybe i will die the same as i live
doubtful and forgotten
