Nostalgic Unity

I feel decompressed and lethargic,

as I continue scrolling through my online soul only to see a kind-hearted person now nostalgic.

 

Why can't we all feel the same?

 

Why does the world seem to be aflame?

 

It's because we all try to accomplish being perfect,

and when we spot "convicts" we don't even detect we inflict neglect.

 

The thought of unity is fading away as is the hippie way,

a late anniversary bouquet whittling away,

a smoking cigarette left around the ashtray, dying this midsummers day.

 

Why is this thought so crazy anyway?

 

The change starts internally,

and can only be finished by an honest community,

one where we can all live with our acquired mental immunity.

 

Finally, peace sets within our unity.
