Lament For the Lost Pronoun

LAMENT FOR THE LOST PRONOUN

Oh! THOU art lost and gone perhaps forever
By equivocating pronoun now replaced 
Where once were I and THOU in shared endeavour
Abandoned and neglected left to waste

Since THOU departed there’s a missing piece
Within the language where we speak of love
A vacuum in syntax of our caprice
Where once we two combined as hand in glove 

For it’s surmised that each communication 
Must be between two single souls that be
Though there be multitude of iteration
I only speak to thee and THOU to me

So come THOU back in thy pellucid essence
Enhance graceful prose and poems with thy presence
