parallel

any parallel between you and me
stopped the day you became untrue, you see
you stand as the reminder to myself
of how I choose not to be

when it all became a lie
built up on the bones of them and i
you forfeited any right
to me

tell her what you will
do you sleep? without that pill?
or do you just snuggle down tightly
with your parallel
