mimic

I am the perfect mimic

and I'll play you perfectly

watch, slowly over time,

how I become you flawlessly

from the patterns of your speech,

to the ways you like to stand,

I'll mimic all your mannerisms for I am your number 1 fan

I am the perfect mimic

through my love I become you

I take on all your quirks and interests, and have all your flaws and vices

so desperate for you to love me back, that I'd practically kill myself if it would help you to stand

So I become a mirror of you,

loose myself until all I can see and be is you,

all in the hopes that you love'll love yourself enough to stick around

I become a mirror of you

and you don't like what you see

You decide you don't like who I've become

I remind you of things you try to drink away

So you leave me

and I am forced to find someone new to mimic and play
