I looked and I looked and I searched and I searched

the whole wide world for someone exactly like me.

My friends told me I was crazy

“theres no one in the world just like you,

you are an individual, unique and special.

How could there be another you?”

But you see there are millions and millions of people in this world.

There is bound to be just one other exactly like me.

And when I find them we shall be the best of friends!

They will understand me completely.

We will have the same likes and dislikes

and sit up all night talking about music and films.

We will have the same beliefs, loves, dreams

and we will understand each other without words.

Our friendship will be perfect.

So I searched and I searched

my whole life for a person exactly like me

and when I finally found them I thought it was great!

Finally someone who will understand me. 

We had the same beliefs, the same dreams and dislikes

the same personality and the same likes.

we were the same soul in two different bodies.

We were bound to be the best of friends!

But when it finally came down to it

there was nothing to talk about, nothing to discuss.

We both agreed on everything so we sat in silence all night long.

and the more time I spent with them the more I began to hate them

for its far easier to hate your own traits

when they are embodied by somebody else.

And finally we thought it best to part ways,

nobody likes being faced with their own shortcomings and cliches.

And it was then that I realised

that it is our differences that spark discussion,

it is our differences that allow us to learn and discover

it is our differences, after all, that we should encourage the most.

sorry, this is really crap as it has not been edited at all but the thought just came into my head and I had to get it down somewhere asap before I forgot it and I just happened to be here.
