When you are born alongside another
People assume you must be completely alike
You have a twin brother that is so cool!
You have a twin brother can you ever read his mind?
You have a twin brother you two must get along so good!
Why must the word twin means born on the same day
People treat it as if it means born as the same person
When you have a twin brother ar eyou always expected to be exactly the same?
A shared birthday does not mean we want the same toys
The same age does not mean we will be equal height
The same mother does not mean we will have the same fashion taste
People see twins like ying and yang meant to fit together
Meant to be together
Meant to like eachother
Its funny how two people who are supposed to be similar are driven apart by their own differences
Hes eleven minutes older than you! I would have never guessed!
They speak like eleven minutes makes a difference
He shares a birthday with you? That is so cool!
They dont know what it feels like to argue over who gets the party this year
They think that being born on the same day as someone is a gift
But when you are born with the same
Home
Mother
Age
You find yourself comparing you to eachother with every turn
My twin brother can play basketball so why cant I
My twin brother is popular so shouldint I be too?
My twin brother can memorize all fifty states so why not me?
Others expectations shift your own
They change my way of thinking
What one must have the other must too
What one must think the other must agree
When you are forced to agree
And live similarly
It only brings out your differences
Why do you hang out with the weird kids?
Why do you not?
Why do you like pineapple on pizza
Why do you only eat cheese?
Why dont you like noodles
Cant you see chicken is better?
Why do you hate me?
Why dont you love me?
Ying and yang
Tit for tat
Like being born on the same day defines your entire personality
Like a shared age means you share a personality
However every human has their own things
And when you are compared to them with every step you start to try to be different
You engage in arguments
You disagree on purpose
You annoy them for a reason
May 13th 2023 To teens have different parties, different cakes, different friends, different lives
You have a twin brother thats so cool!
They dont understand that others thinking we are cool
Is the reason we are not
Twin
It stand for sharing a birthdate
It stands for sharing the same womb
It stands for sharing the same parents
When will people see the fact that it will never stand for sharing the same life.
