An Irish Twin Am I

I am an Irish twin.
I was born in January
my brother born in November
of the same year.
We grew up in bunk beds
fighting over top or bottom
and I can't remember who won.
We fought when we were board
with nothing better to do,
there was never any real violence
or hate, we were just boys being boys
and that's what boys do.

Now, Joe lives in Virginia
I live in the town where we were boys
and I miss him all the time
the years apart have made us closer,
but our bunk beds further apart.
