Midnight Thoughts II - Who are You?

L: Hey you…yes, I’m talking to you. What are you doing in my bathroom?

R: ……

L: Don’t turn away when I’m talking to you. How did you get in here?

R: …….

L: Who do you think you are…coming in here like you own the place? Dressed like that? Those are my clothes you are wearing…take them off now.

R: If I take them off you would have to do the same thing, wouldn’t you?

L: What do you mean? Get the hell out of here before I call the police.

R: You can do whatever you want, I don’t care.

L: I’ll give you one more chance, I’ll turn the other way and hopefully you’ll get to your senses and gently disappear, or evaporate, whatever’s easier for you.

R: ……

L: Still here? Say something damn it, why don’t you speak?
You bloody fool!

R: Haa, you really think you can throw me out like that? What do you expect me to say? I’m busted; you caught me in here doing nothing. It seems to me, you don’t want to admit it. Come, look at me, does it ring any bells?

L: ……

R: Well? Does it?

L: Have we met before?

R: What do you think, have we?

L: Hmm…we're wearing the same clothes… you have a beard as well… I can see the same scars on your face … hmm, do we have the same eyes? Come closer.
Yes…we do, dark and brown, lost in abyss, have you been drinking?

R: Have you?

L: Only a beer or two…I know this look, you’re lost aren’t you?
I hate your nose, its too big, you remind me of the Queen witch, Snowhite’s stepmother… your eyes have that grey blue outline with brown beehives within, and a black dot in the middle, like a perfectly matched stain. Ohh, by the way, you are loosing your hair, did you know that?

R: Haa, yes I do, you're loosing them too. You're scared, aren’t you?
Well, don’t! Can’t you see your true self in me?

L: My true what? Why do you keep repeating me, doing all those weird questions, you’re getting annoying. Anyway, who made you the smart one around here?

R: Well, I can’t go anywhere unless you do,
I can’t appear smarter than you,
Because you are looking in your eyes,
in a dark whirlpool full of lies.
Why wonder who might be,
the one who looks so much like me?

Can’t you recognise yourself?
These hours, where needs are so much felt,
Come and hypnotise my self
And see the troubles in your head
I don’t care if you could know
That this reflection is your own

L: Haa, can you sing as well?

R: Can you?

L: You’re keeping the same tempo, aren’t you? I have a feeling that if I turn off the lights you’ll be gone in a minute. Do you want me to do that?

R: It will only be temporary. I can never leave this place. I wish I could, but I can’t. Unless you do! And my nickname’s ‘the bathroom fairy’, you can’t avoid me.

L: Pointless conversation, pointless words, I am going to bed…and think of a better subject next time!
