two vampires make a mirror

everyone says ai look just like him

my piercing eyes, my sharp smile, and my snow white skin

I’m a perfect carbon copy - a reflection of his youth

my mother mistakes me for him after only two drinks

she starts yelling and crying, begging me to stay this time

I embody his choices in more ways than one

his intense stare, his carnivorous fangs, and his deathly pale skin

everyone says I look just like him

and I act like him too

making stupid choices I’ll regret for the rest of my life

he’s a perfect carbon copy - a reflection of my future

angry and bitter, picking splinters from my chest

as if I wasn’t the one to drive the stake through his heart
