The Other Me
I know your Secrets, Devils, and Dreams.

The shadow that lingers, the darkness underneath.
A silent companion, inseparable you and me.
I am the you that you refuse to see.
Stuck behind the scenes to everything you want to be.
When you think I am gone, I am still there.
Trapped in the background, gasping for air.
Into lungs that need not breathe.
Supplied to a heart that does not beat.
Through eyes that cannot see.
Always by your side, watching everything.
I know your secrets, devils, and dreams.
Things that no one else could even believe.
If I were to speak of the things that I have seen.
A lifetime of horrors or a season of dreams.
The stories I could tell and the pictures I could weave.
All creating a whole that is your very being.
Yet, I will not tell. I will not say a thing.
These secrets I shall hold for all eternity.
For those are forever between you and me.
My silent companion, the other me.
