My twin brother died in a car accident last year

Well, I don't really know how to begin. I'm part of a twin, we are twenty years old. My twin brother died in a car accident last year. My heart is broken in pieces and I don't know how to cope without him.

Our b-day is the 10 of September and then it's our 21st. We planned the whole party and now he is gone. We had a very special bond, if some see us we were always together.

I know he is still with me, and he won't leave me alone but it still doesn't take away the pain inside. Sometimes I wonder, why didn't I die with him. Why am I still here on earth and the other part of me is gone for ever. And the people don't understand how I feel, they tell me everything will be okay. But will it? Just thought I wanted to tell my story to u, so that the twins out there must really adore their brother or sister.
