Eyes, my eyes Wavering in the murky water Move and my doppelganger follows I stare and I stare back Although, I know what I can't feel out loud I stare thrashing in the cold water Rage filling me and causing unseen waves The water is still, unmoving I keep watching I become stone, dread filling my watery eyes I watch as my hands cover my face I blink I watch and I watch back Nothing I smile and I smile back On the edge of the shore I know that I am collected I am peaceful The water knows who I am and understands I am unwavering.

Doppelganger
Eyes, my eyes Wavering in the murky water Move and my doppelganger follows I stare and I stare back Although, I know what I can't feel out loud I stare thrashing in the cold water Rage filling me and causing unseen waves The water is still, unmoving I keep watching I become stone, dread filling my watery eyes I watch as my hands cover my face I blink I watch and I watch back Nothing I smile and I smile back On the edge of the shore I know that I am collected I am peaceful The water knows who I am and understands I am unwavering.
