So I have heard/read a LOT of arguments over this topic, and I find it ridiculous. Here are some reasons why they can't be compared with each other:
1- Writing styles. Rowling writes in a descriptive third-person, whereas Meyer writes in a first-person account of a seventeen year old girl. You can't expect Bella to talk like a professional poet of some sort, I doubt many average teenage girls do that.
2- Plot. Harry Potter is mainly about wizards and fighting. Twilight is about Vampires and romance... Totally the same (Major burning sarcasm).
3- Audience. Harry Potter is aimed for children. Before the whole nagging about "It's suitable for everyone" You are liars! Babies cannot read, toddlers cannot read and so many others cannot read. Don't lie. Twilight is mainly aimed at teenagers and young adults.
4- Characters. None of them are alike, not a thing in common. They are all unique in their own ways.
5- Message. Twilight is basically a message of love in all forms (diversity love?). Harry Potter is about friendship.
These are a few of so many reasons why they can't actually be compared. They are too different. If anyone has any more points, please reply. It shall be fun to attempt some kind of bridges being built between the fans. It would be nice to be friendly with each other, and have kind discussions about the books/movies together.

I still love you after all these years.
Thinking of you brings me to tears.
I see you every time I dream
To know you’re gone makes me wanna scream.
Where are you my dear?
Are you near?
I have let sin consume my heart
And I let it tear us apart.
I didn’t realize until it was too late
When you had passed the gate.
I thought we’d always be best friends
Too bad it came to an end
Your eyes and voice still haunt me.
Sometimes I wonder if you are just beyond my reach.
Where are you my dear?
Are you near?
I have let sin consume my heart
And I let it tear us apart
I didn’t realize it until it was too late
When you had passed the gate. (2x)
Why am I still here?
