Question: Will this framework yield a poem someday!?
*****
Finger to my lips
and breath a hush to you
my shadow!.
Down the stairs
and out the door
we go
to sun-spilled meadows!.

A dance with you
a‘lead
gets a‘tangled,
tumble weed,
agog,
we must sit
beside the willow!.

Casting you,
my blackened silhouette,
unwilling and unwanted
marionette,
It saddens you, my singer,
harder more,
for you to linger,
Rest a while my pet,
My doppelganger!.

I'll never quite look at my shadow the same way again!. Very nice and creative!. An enjoyable read!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Its a poem already, having such genuine idea, pouring in a steady smooth flow!. If I really got the idea you want to express, then the word " doppelganger" or its Anglo version 'doubleganger', is a must for a powerful closure!.That also goes for the "harder more"; the flow says that there are many (conceptual) words entangled between, before, and after these two words!.
A Quite Nice Read!

Engaging!. To answer your question, yes, I think so (but what do I know)!. I like the idea of the doppelganger, but not the word!. I don't think it fits with the rest of the poem So, if I were to give you advise, which is rare, I would find another way for the last two!. But then, perhaps you like them!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A wonderful, high-spirited poem with a unique perspective on, and interaction with, your shadow!. I love it just the way it is written here, doppelganger included!. Thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

My intimidation precedes me!.!.!.!.

All sounded "flowy" until the doppelganger!. (as the user above me said more eloquently)

Maybe "ghostly double" or "phantom twin" !.!.!.!.!? !?

I'm leaving quietly!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like doppelganger!.

Not sure about 'harder more' though, possibly harder still or harder yet!? Hmmm, difficult!.

My homonym!?

Poem's there, you just gotta pluck the right word!. It'll be along!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Unless I'm really out in left field, there appears to be a poem there already!.
I would not change "doppelganger", great flow with a smile at the end!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like this one even better than 'Unsafe for Shadows' (in Pavlov's Cat)!. This one is softer, sadder, with more imagery!. And it employs your unique uses of meter and assonance!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It seems you've found a patch of light, escaped from yesterdays dark plight!. Doppelganger sounds just right, all in all a perfect write!Www@QuestionHome@Com

A 'hush' to oneself while you contemplate!.!.!.what's wrong with this rendition 'as is'!? Good to go!Www@QuestionHome@Com
