Even as separate and alone
As we can feel sometimes
We are all connected to
Each other in some way
This society tells us that
We are separate and we
Have to fend for ourselves
Our else someone else
Might take what I have
Or somehow take what
I own or what I have
Spent my hard earned
Money to buy and to
Obtain without thinking
About the other people
Around them who are
Needing some love and
Comfort and healing and
All they need is a kind
Word or a person to let
Them know that things
Will be ok and that
Everything will be alright
And that they can make
It one more day and
Helping each other
Where we can simply
Because we can rather
Than trying to figure
Out what we can get
From that person in
Return or trying to
Manipulate them into
Getting what we want
For our own gain and
Profit when if we just
Asked and shared with
Each other there would
Be no need for stealing
Or for wars or the need
To feel separate or alone
Because we would live
As a community of people
Actively working together
To help each other where
We needed and helping
To heal people from
The heart as well
We tend to separate and
Segregate people instead
Of acknowledging the
Beautiful diversity of
Life and of people as
Well when we should
Be celebrating our
Uniqueness while at
The same time
Understand that
We are all one
And we come
From the same
Source and that
Even though we
Might have different
Ways of feeling
Or seeing or
Interpreting things
Doesn't mean that
Someone else's view
Is wrong is just another
Way to look at something
From a different angle
Than you might have
Originally been able to
See on your own and
Being able to learn from
Each other instead of
Trying to force our
Ideas our thoughts
On another and if
We get to the point
Where we understand
We are one we could
Never hurt or harm
Or steal or even have
Wars because we would
Understand that we are
All the same and if I harm
You I am harming a piece
Of me and when you can
Get to that understanding
Of life and nature and of
People as well you will
Start to see things in a
Different way than you
Have ever seen before
