Doppelganger

saw a guy in the street who looked like another guy I tricked myself to love
so hell, I loved him too
but he walked away as if I didn’t look like his last lover.
what a dick!
is there a guy out there who sees me and says
Damn that’s Patrice!
That’s Marie!
She’s the one for me!

Cashiers ask if they’ve seen me before.
I tell them no and look to the cars outside for my doppelganger
who must be nearby.
Maybe she’ll find the guy from earlier
and break his heart out of supernatural loyalty to me.
