Doppelgänger

I am you and you are me

with 48 years in between.

We have the same eyes

and a killer grin.

Oh! Our bouncy blonde curls?

Where do I even begin?

We are silly and sweet; We don’t miss many beats.

We are more observant than you know; we just keep it

on the down low.

We are attentive and kind. We will always speak

our mind when something needs to be said.

We’re day dreamers, fact believers and

we have faith in humanity.

We are love you for lifers, even when we can’t decipher;

if you’re good for us or bad.

We know how to make you smile even if it’s just for a little while.

We live our lives truthfully and are known for our sharp tongue.

If you cross our path you might feel the wrath of our brutal honesty.

But when we sing, it’s to the world resounding effortlessly.
