She’d said, I, “looked good in black,” and she did, she did, she did too; So much so that sooner’d come a swift exit at, “Martyr’s Park,” a tempt embedded venture, conjoined, coerced and later beholden to our ghosts; apparitions in an ugly early morning, post – biology, words whispered with only one intent and eventual ****** under guise of the night that’d ensue eternity. Blanketed our beauty wrought twisted skin, it remained an ugly never aware, whilst she discarded my newest misfortune, the forgone forlorn cloth of impasse. I reciprocate, so much so that beyond her ulterior lace, a pale yellow beckoned, “ever,” below - “Kiss me,” When I grin and I do ‘midst Admiring the freckly upon This desperately hidden scripture – One scarred Right shoulder, This greatest discovery, if only a human kind of crater and just under tear-smeared mascara, forever danced, come the lacking light or whatnot. Echoes etched some prior author, some other lover, and yet still to bleed, like sweat, like work, and now, her nails stay to trace another saga atop the, “bare” only I could offer. Sacrament, the moments blemished, “now,” and immortality’s, “future,” promised, whispered, and guised a matrimony that’d break hearts come morning, come the moment when she’d drip like the rain, bend like the leaf kissing chaos and gently ask, “could you be me?” “Would you be me?” “Could you, please be me?” Her (English) name was, "Taylor."

And the she asked, "Would you be me?"

My own eyes betray me. They fight down any chance of peace. I approach you as a friend, and they **** you into foe. Scatter my handshake into reproach. I promise, my intentions are clean Even if they give you ***** looks. If there’s one person you can’t trust It’s that ****** that sits at your emotional steering wheel. He looks like you Dresses like you Sounds like you Everyone thinks he IS you. He’ll take any ******* chance he’s got to drive you into brick walls And bail for you to take the blame, 
 Nothing but a dopple-ganger Trying to justify the actions of a psychopath Who stays out of sight Convenient, 
I’ll always take the fall.

It isn't me, he just looks like me. And even though he looks like me, He doesn't act like me. His mind isn't a meadow like mine. His is a dry, dark and dead forest. His eyes aren't brown like mine are. The iris is big and the eyes are dark beige. His hands are clenched and his teeth are grinding. His mouth is snarling His eyes, hollow and blank eyes, stare out from my skull. It isn't me, it's just my doppleganger

Long and dark corridors A medical wing Flickering fluorescent lights And a man with a ring Dressed all in black Familiar scars Passing windowed rooms Reflecting faint fluorescent stars Broken glass under boots Mirroring the light Whilst this man keeps moving forward A wraith of the night Steel-framed door And a birthday passcode 2-1-0-9 and he's in No light and all shadow Just a window for a wall And a Butchering freak Bladed or blunted weapons Bloodlust and fresh meat Tied up are the innocent Power to the psychopath If there's one thing to be known That son of a ***** makes pain last A torturous death causing A tortured souls' song In the throes of insanity The Butcher sings along And this doppelgänger of me He quietly stands Calmly watching friends die As I clench my own hands He may look like me But that's where it ends I'd give the world to save them all But clearly Nightmares don't care

Nightmares of the Past
When frequencies meet with the same intensity, one object feels the other— just as soul and mind connect with the rhythm of pulse. Its. like doppelgänger never meets, yet vibrates with the same force; shadows breathe where dark emerges from the light. It is the singing bowl’s arcane, where water creates healing sound, and nature balances the circle of life. Shall it called mere resonance or some mystical bound?

Doppleganger resonance 🎼🌓
You cannot pass through shards of glass, but it's too strong to be broken. I look at my daunting reflection, and it turns from me. Yet I know that if I turn in response, it would come right through the mirror. Could I shatter the other me? If I do, will I forever be lost? The doppelgänger who so despises me; could I destroy it and somehow remain unchanged? O' mirror on the wall, hate me—ignore my call. If you think that I need you... perhaps I do, but no matter the case, I'll deny that it's true. For I'm bound to you, as you are to me— So learn to accept me, or we'll cease to be.

Doppelganger, why do you hate me?
