What Connects All of Us

by Nicole M. - Gemini

What common bond
Holds humanity together...
What shared aspect
Of human nature
Keeps things running...
What is the pillar
That supports
All the faults
short-comings
and tragedies?

Could it be beliefs?
No, I don't believe so
For some believe in nothing
All loose all hope at the very end...
Could it be a love for one's self?
No, keep going
For we all have had times
When it was hard to look in the mirror.
Is it love in our hearts
Or ideas in our minds?
The pulsing of the blood?
No, no, and wrong again.
What connects all of us
Christian, Jew
Poet, Hockey Player
Man, Woman
Nun, Prostitute
Criminal, Victim
Is each other.
