Analysis of My twin.
You did nothing wrong, you have no reason to feel ashamed.
It's only my overactive mind, that can be blamed.
When you're not around, my heart is maimed.
You are my twin, my other half, this you know is true.
You are the one that I go to when I'm feeling sad or blue.
When I need a good laugh and kind words, it's you I go too!
So when you are tired, take all the time that you need.
Just give me ample warning, your warning I will heed.
And then in life together, we shall always succeed.
Together in life, we will always be friends.
Driving together, around all the curvy bends.
Until we finally find our peace and our journey ends.
