Doppelgänger

I've caught myself wondering lately
To my shadow in passing mirrors: did I
Get it from you if I am a liar
Just like my eyes and my hair
If you raised me to be lonely
How could you then
Chop my forest down to dining chairs, then
Make me sit in them

Anointed protector of my holiest places
Where words can never go
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes
Our sobbing takes us

I wish my throat were burning
Because I sang for you, not screamed
I bury my head in your lying hair
And it smells like all I know of my beginning

You were all the comfort I
Ever wished to know
Sometimes our sobbing takes us
Where words, where words, where words
Can never go
