I feel you there

Likeness is pulling me down

I'll move on in spite

Entropy drives abiding heartbreak

Absent, absent of fear, absent of love, absent of you

I'll keep running away from the man you became

I feel you there inching closer to me

The shadows disguise your flaws

I'm scared

I'm scared I'm like you

I despise you

Come into my view

I can hear you

Breathing in the dark

Breathing in the dark

Inching closer to me with a sterilizing mindset

I'll nevеr forget hiding, wishing you were diffеrent

My existence is maligning you

I'll move on in spite of you hiding a lie between two truths

Your worthless and I need you, my life is better this way

Clench my wrist like everything slips between your fingertips

What are you?

The shadows disguise your flaws

I'm scared I'm like you

I despise you

Come into my view

I can hear you

Breathing

How could you hate your namesake?

What are you, standing over me?

I can hear you breathing

Frozen by hatred and diffidence

Confused by states of ambivalence

Begging for deliverance, I keep my eyes shut

I can't escape you standing over me

I was six
