He and I became a "we".

We were both confused with feelings,
We were both bombarded by changes and
Soon the word broke down into the two letters that compose it.

Just like the two people broke down not into themselves, but strangers.
In the process of becoming a we sacrifices are made and soon you lose little pieces
Of yourself everywhere.

And when we broke down I became me, and he became his,
And soon he and I parted. And soon he and I lost touch.
And the letters separated back into their respective parts of the alphabet.

And eighteen different vowels and constants separated the
We that he and I had once made.
