In the shadows with the lights illuminating your facial features I look up speechless unable to breath the time has gone and is never coming back I had my chance to be with you but I blew it and now I am standing beside myself looking at my image that reflects in the window glass the person that I see can’t all be me she is crying tears of pain and regret but not I a smile is on my face and pride fills my heart who is this impostor that looks so much like me and why does she cry doesn’t she see how happy I have become standing here all alone guess not she wants to say something the reflection that is but I will not listen to this impostor who thinks she is me that’s ridiculous she’s only an image a figment of my imagination a hallucination something that my warped mind had created when I was not looking she wants to be just like me but that could never be I do not feel I am made of stone but she cries nothing effects me I am strong but she looks sad’ I shall turn away and ignore this impostor who is pretending to be meBirth sign: Aries
