As i woke my head felt

Like an ice pick penetrating inwards

I couldn't even face the touch,

Urging to rip it off

My hands were shaking

While the pressure died with time

I walked in apathy since i was told

To wear the face of a dead

You saved my life in ending yours

Through the eyes of a ghost

I learned to see the world

From a different view

On my shoulders i now

Carry a different identity

I-i speak with your tongue,

My smile on your your lips

I'm crying the tears that were yours to shed

I wear your face as mine,

The most precious lie

I lost myself under your skin

I sometimes hear your voice,

Calling me to take us both away

But breathing air all through a mask

Threatens to leach me out

I hate this way of tumbling through the day,

Can't seem to take us both away

They did not want us to act as one

With your confinement in me

They trapped us both

Who wanted to run away
