If I shut my eyes tight
You are there,
Lurking aimlessly
through the endless tunnels of my mind.

Daddy taught me about
Your goodness
And your other's evil deeds
It is difficult to tell you apart

I wander through my tunnels
Looking for purity
Is it you I find?

I shall not know, until we travel.

We wade through my Chamber of Horrors
Disturbing memories flood over me
Sweeping me off my feet
They are the past I thought I had forgotten

This isn't the innocent world
I was told you live in.
It cannot be you

It is your twin,
Who's glare I cannot seem to escape.

As if almost perfectly timed
Your beautiful shadow calls to me

I long to follow you
And end this living nightmare.

I am torn between two worlds.
