Doppelgänger

I saw my doppelgänger
Early this morning
When I woke up
And started shaving
 
He looked exhausted
And got much older
Life must’ve been harsh
Like the world’s on his shoulder
 
Years ago when we’re younger
We used to look alike
But the years were unkind
Now I’m just glad he’s alive
 
But years from now
I’d look just like him
I hope we’ll both be ready
When our eyes grow dim!!!

In our mind's eye, there resides a younger version of ourselves. It's like we refuse to age and we try to hold on to our youth. Alas! we have to look at the mirror sometimes.
