There was one
And that was all one ever knew
One got through this life on his own

One was alone until he met her
She had been one before as well
Together, they became two

Things changed from being about me
And everything became about us
Together, no longer alone
One and one became two

Two were together for a long time
And they did everything with each other
After a while, they created another one
And two plus one became three

These three became a unit, a family
The bigger two looked out for the smaller one
And that is how they got along

After some time
Life crept in and began to divide the three apart
Try as they might
Fight as they fight
They couldn't stay as three any longer

As everything fell apart
Three became two
And then two became one
Everyone was alone again
Just like the beginning, *the start
