Hi You/Me

I am you and you are me

Me and you forever be

One plus one and we are two

But wait a second who are you

Your side is light and mine is dark

My eyes are tears and yours of spark

Too much jealously, too little equality

No escaping now, bleeding harmony

I seek

You see

I flee

You cheat

I quicky you

You over-think me

I’m weak

You’re strong

Marathon, after the finish line I still run

You sit, you eat, you wear a crown

I’m sick, thrown in the sea

You’ve blown another speech

The truth you try to bleach

I live

You kill

I hold my breath

Not far from death

Lawyer, that’s my birthright!

I’m wrong you’re right

It’s time to write

I fear the flight but I fly anyway

You keep the fight but you lose everyday

The heart is none

My tights are worn

Dancing, mirror glazing

Me, amazing.. you, a clown

Eyes clearing up, pozing down

Poison up my throat I vomit

I vomit you, what is this

Is that you or is it me

The person I want to be

The me inside of me

A mirror or a window

Selfie, I need to swallow

Again, I vomit and I am hollow

Never to follow

The world, I tweet

For you I greet, last but not least

Soulmates were born apart

Reconnecting, disconnecting

Mirror shattered, lights off

Out of my sight

I can’t see anything

I don’t want anything

I hear or dream is it bling bling, insurance calling

I kiss me I spit you bring bring, between heaven and hell I swing

Bring nothing

Nothing from you

There is no two

Only me not you

Winner but lonely

Fake gold medal

Get off the pedestal

you’re not my role model

You lose I win

Your time is up

Your God just hung up

But I still see in you my dull coffee cup

Slaves of grains

Grains of sand

Drifting sands the desert is vast

40 days to the promise lands

No thanks, I don’t eat dessert, just let me out of the gate

Fortunely desserted, myself, not yet abandoned

Away from lying mirrors

From broken hearts

Must I go?

Go now!

Go nowhere?!

Quarantine party, it’s only you and me, but this time we must stay sober

We’re stuck here together so you better hold me closer

Because today, I have no other

Ultimately, when all of this would be over

I could finally recognize who’s that talking to me in the mirror

I pour my heart involuntarily into words, since I found that writing is the ultimate solution for a nightmarish sailing journey. I can still connect with you :)
