An Open Letter To My Twin

From the womb to the tomb.

An Open Letter To My Twin
Taylor James

To my twin,

Thank you for being my person. You have been there for me when nobody else was and I am so grateful to have been so lucky to have you. You make me happy, when skies are grey, and you will never know how much I love you. You have been and will always be my womb-mate. We did share a room for the first 17 years of our life. Some might call it too personal, I would have to agree. Though it was difficult, (you sure are messy!!), I wouldn't have it any other way. In a way, you have taught me how to handle a mess, and just deal with it.

Everyone always asks me, "Do you like being a twin?" The answer is simple- no. I'm kidding! Being a twin is the greatest honor. Being YOUR twin is the greatest honor. Having a twin is basically like having a forever friend. No matter what we go through, you will never be able to get rid of me. Sorry not sorry. You know me better than I know myself. When I can't find the right words to say, you can, and I am so appreciative that you are you.

I know that no matter what I go through, I know that I am not alone. I will never have to stand by myself in concert lines, when I am feeling anxious, you are there to hug me, and when I am having a rough night, your comforting words are all need. You accept me for who I am not have never ever made me feel like I don't deserve the things I have. You have always supported me with everything and I have no way to ever thank you for that.

In the end, I would love to thank you. Thank you for all of the silly inside jokes, like spunky mider. Thank you for all of the insane memories we have shared. There is no one else I would want to have a flip flop fight with. Thank you for calling off of work for me when I was too nervous to do it myself. Thank you for having sleepovers with me, just because I wanted to cuddle. You will always be my best friend and I can't wait to see what else we will experience together.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
