A good friend will hold your hand. A best friend will hold your hand through the good. A true friend will hold your hand through it all.


The snow falls and it cools my hot tears

I have done something wrong something that could've been avoided

I lay in her blood while she lays sprawled in a heap dead

I shot her with my gun ending her life

She was so young an amazing life ahead of her a diamond ring upon her finger

Green with envy I took her ring

In remorse I called the cops I claimed to have been her sister

We looked so alike it was believable

I am her doppelganger not her sister

I was barely her friend when I pulled the trigger

The gun it laid in her hand I looked into her deep blue eyes and I knew that I was wrong

I killed her to become her

I didn't want to be doppelganger anymore

That's what I told the cop when he locked me in a cell and threw away the key

This isn't about me. I had really weird dream one night and I decided to make it into a poem.
