With the same birthday and parents,
some might call them a pair.
Their experiences may vary,
but there are some things that they’ll share.
Like the deepest connection
because from inception they’re together.
They will have individual qualities
but can be “two birds of a feather.”
The perception of many is
“How can this be?
I can’t believe you are twins,
you look so different to me.”
Fraternal twins may be different
formed from two separate eggs.
It allows them to be unique
and to find their own way.
They will be the piece that’s missing
to help restore the balance.
They will be each other’s greatest support
at times when life throws a challenge.
As time passes by
life may drift them apart,
then just like that they’ll be back again,
with what they had from the start.
