My Closest Enemy



You mimic my every move
Mouth the same words as I do
Could you remember every mistake too?
I'm not afraid of you
You stretch, you fade
You bend into shapes that I hate
Are you reflecting back at me?
Suggesting how I'm supposed to be
Each time I walk into the light
You come around for one last fight
A never ending love hate momentum
A continuous hard swinging pendulum
I can't seem to cut you away
You slide fittingly on me like skin
Leaving my pores no room for breathing
I will prevent you coming in too deep
But remain connected to my feet
After something like that
I wouldn't simply forget
Not just like that
