Doppel Ganger

I know you are,
But what am I?
I'm asleep.
In dreams we fly.

In the deep,
Twinkling of an eye.
Not a peep,
Not a cry.

Face it, Captain,
We're all long gone.
You're holding out,
For something wrong.

Forever searching,
Never find.
Listing, lurching,
Marking time.

With a promise,
Comes a hope.
Seeking solace
And means to cope.

I, for one, know
Time has come.
You're on your own.
The only one.

Close your eyes
And count to ten.
If no one's waiting,
Count again.

The future's spoiling
To be the past.
Who knows how long
This trip will last.
