It was the moment we were born. Seconds apart, we came into the world. It always annoyed us, always bothered us that neither of our parents could remember which was older, the first from the womb We would always tease each other But we were inseparable all the same. It was the year that we changed to the lonely, bitter I. The year I went to my first funeral and staring into the coffin numbly, I remember seeing an almost exact replica of myself And that was the moment I broke.

It was the moment we were born. Seconds apart, we came into the world. It always annoyed us, always bothered us that neither of our parents could remember which was older, the first from the womb We would always tease each other But we were inseparable all the same. It was the year that we changed to the lonely, bitter I. The year I went to my first funeral and staring into the coffin numbly, I remember seeing an almost exact replica of myself And that was the moment I broke.
