One Poem by Tehillah Thomas

One

The thoughts of a million heads,
In one.
The imaginations of a thousand minds,
In one.
The dreams of a hundred hearts,
In one.

Who is this ONE?
This one head, mind and heart
This one body and soul
This one burden carrier
This one fortress
This one bridge

The two hands of one carry,
A thousand crosses of many
The two legs of one walk,
A thousand miles of many
On the two shoulders of one,
Rests the tears of many.

Don't we all have two?
Why this ONE?

A million,
A thousand,
A hundred and ten,
All. On. ONE.
