You and I

Our first synthesis

_photophsphorylation_

And our first breath

_adenosine diphosphate phosphorylated with an inorganic phosphorus_

Growing into something beautiful

_primordiums breaking from the shoot apical meristem_

You were from one, and I was built of two

_of the cotyledon difference_

I watched as your skin peeled into the wind

_as the sempervirens battles the deciduos_

And your beauty withered away as well

_Angi never surpassed Gymn_

And there we stood

never before so different

And yet never the same
