My Twin Self

By Vinnie

Allow it to be slow, droplets by droplets lets go

I’ll vanish like vapours, clear your skies

Before the sunshine glitters

And before you’re are adored

I’ll vanish like vapours, so don’t fear the fond

Cuz Its me, its not you who’s frozen to the bone

Twin dear, let me write you letters

Of what we’ve come through, l’ll remind

Hope you paint, weave our tapestry

No longer synchronised, as did our artistry

So now you can paint, I’ll vanish like stains

Fire your shade of skin now, without me

I’ll vanish like vapours, melting away our demons

But I’d worry if you still come home

Drunk driving through the fog

Stay lost in the woods

Muffled by vines you laddered

So make me your looking mirror

I’ll remind your skin is fire

I am a dead and buried truth

Buried in you, my future self anew

You chose differently for you

My dear I am so proud of you

I hope you also choose

Voice that I never raised

Warmth that I never felt

Home that I have always missed

Breaths I that I could never breathe deep
