Behind the Smile

Ahsy Thompson

By Da’mon-Ahsy Eugene ThompsonPublished 3 months ago 1 min read

Good is the only way to stop evil.

Selflessness prevents tragedy.

A good deed can hold back so many tears.

Good is the only way to stop evil.

A helping hand to save a life.

All to keep your conscience clear.

Good is the only way to stop evil.

Sometimes the line is thin.

Careful to make sure it’s never crossed.

Good is the only way to stop evil.

Evil wants to take the reigns.

Doing good can prevent a loss.

Good is the only way to stop evil.

Whispers of death flood the mind.

Smile if only to mask the hate.

Good is the only way to stop evil.

An inner battle with no clear end.

You must remind yourself day by day.
