The Double Poem by Zoran Bogdanovic

The Double



Somewhere over there
where I am no more,
ever since I left
my vacuum lives my
long abandoned life.
Immaterial, empty,
many years on end
he walks the streets,
observes and ponders,
and invisible to the eye
silently wonders.
He visits places,
encounters people,
follows their steps,
studies their faces.
Even though speechless,
his presence would bear
strange feel in the air
that he may be resting
on some empty chair.
