Heavy load you carried, laboured breathing and turning blue
Knotted cord around your neck, obstetrical and pediatric crews
Gathered to help you come out first, assisted ventilation
No crying sounds heard by me, I was still in jubilation.
Did not see you for a whole two weeks
But it not take too long once we met
A secret language came to us soon
About how we felt and what we'd get.
Friends to each other, partners in life
Greeted by all as the twins
Who is older, who is smarter?
Who is the one that always wins?
High and low I can search, I know
A brother like you is rare
You would sacrifice your head of hair
There is no one that compares.
Grand were our plans
To rule the world with smarts
Great adulation
Winning at croquet and lawn darts.
You led the way with words hello
Fearless and forward you were
Saved me shame from running to and fro
At parties, I used to move around in a blur.
When we arrived, people stopped and stared
It's the twins, what a pair debonair!
I knew you had my back and I had yours
We loved each other so that we did not have a care.
You were there for me
And I was there when you shared.
