We/Us

She and I left home in our teens.                      She left to work. I left to study
She and I started school.                                 She didn't finish.
She and I miss our parents.                          
She and I had to learn a new culture and a new language.
She is seven years younger to me and married.

She and I were sitting in the same room and laughing and chatting. I asked her a thousand questions.

I've had a really long, lonely day, and I'm so glad she was here when I got back.
