You are you.
I am me.
how come you're gone?

You are peanut butter.
I am jelly.
how come you're gone?

You are yin.
I am yang.
how come you're gone?

You are Mario.
I am Luigi.
how come you're gone?

You are me.
I am you.
how come you're gone?

Now matter how in sync with someone you think you are, you may never know the real extent of it until they are gone. i learned that the hard way.
