The Good Part in Me!

 

 

I’m always asking this question,

“Is the world coming to an end?”

As I see a lot of destruction,

“None of my business” I pretend!

 

I see hungry children,

I see homeless teens,

I see unsafe families,

And many many other scenes

 

Then I chose this topic,

Sorry, I was obliged to...

By this very controlling person,

And only “my best” is what I will do...

 

Actually he’s not a person,

It’s the good part in me,

It’s from deep inside, my consciousness,

That tells me “ACT”, don’t just SEE!
