Unity is Eternity

Sometimes there isn’t just one keyhole.

Sometimes we need multiple keys to unlock the door.

Gold keys, 

metal keys, 

round keys, 

square keys.

We each hold the keys to unlocking the door,

Do we trust each other enough to give them up?

So we can all enter?

Or do we not?

When the door is open, what happens from there?

Are we friends?

Enemies?

Will we leave?
Will we stay?

I’ll stay.

Because even if we merely brush upon one moment of unity,

That’ll be enough to unite us forever.

I’m not asking for eternity, 

And even if we sit here wordlessly,

Staying is an endless supply of words.

That’s enough.

Quarrels of weighing who’s smarter,

Who’s handsomer,

Who’s better,

Who’s right.

All of these don’t matter 

if your head is screwed on tight.

It’s clear to see that fights

End.

Strife

 Ends.

But unity,

Is eternity,

Even if you don’t know it yet.

What if there was no “other” category?

The feeling of exclusion is mutual.

The rush of hierarchy positions is temporary.

There’s no secret,

No exclusion.

Everyone’s invited.

Everyone’s united.

We all go,

And this moment

Will unite us.

Friendships end,

Fights end.

Unity is eternity.

There’s power in numbers.

There’s power in the unity

From uniting us,

With unity

Uniting us.

We’re more similar than we think ourselves to be.

While we’re unique, we’re all

Affectionate,

Beautiful,

Intelligent,
Loved,

United.

Me,

Him,

Her,

Them,

You.

Unity is Eternity.
