    This is so sad, how you feel so alike to someone yet you know inside there is a difference, but at the same time, the little parts of you that beat as one make you as inseperable

    I feel like this is about a sibling, but also more a friend, more someone inside of you who you feel is you, yet not you (if that makes sense), it fits with many scenarios

    I love the title, ingenious Liz
    This was such a heartbreaking piece.

    I have sis and often times people think that we are twins but we don't look alike. but at times we do think that we were supposed to be twins. Your poem reminded me of that. I like the use of mirror because a mirror reflects ever move that we make and show us the other us that is infront. So it saying that you two do look alike but still somehow different but at the end realizing that even if both are kind of different there is still the same qualities or problems that can make you both be like twins.

    Edit: I like the title. The twins... Sniwt.. Showing the reflection.

    I too love how you twisted the words in the title :) it was awesome and pulled me in and wondered what the poem would be about . . .

    and wow... reading this poem has made me very emotional, I have a sister that I'm close to as well, though i can't relate directly, but i can to the emotional closeness and devastation in this poem :(

    well penned

    I love how I can analyze this in two ways.

    You're either referring to a real sibling (which I'm unsure about), or you're just referring to your ego.. your conscious, maybe.

    First, the title is freakin' awesome: It's like a reflection, that's why I have a feeling that the other twin is you!

    I was sucked in totally, for the melancholy is overwhelming. The vibes of sadness this piece sends to me are gigantic!

    But by reading the first stanza, two times, it feels that you're talking about schizophrenia. mm... a little help here?

    Anyway, what I'm sure of is the big distance between those two sides. Flashbacks really helped in stressing on this. Beautiful right.. Liz.
