You never know how somebody


You never know how somebody feels on the inside

Dealing with all the built up stuff they hide

That fake smile wears off after a while

So its simple words as help

That can make a person glow

The battles they fight

During the day & all through the night

May not be something light

So its simple words as be blessed

That can ease all there stress

You never know what somebody is going through

Their sky in the morning might not be as blue

So don’t be as judgmental

Be gentle

And show them your smile

Because it might be the best thing they’ve seen in a while

So simple words can change a person’s life

They could’ve been ready to give up

And your good morning gave then confidence to stand on grounds they thought were shaken

But t enemy has mistaken if he thought he would ruin another soul to depression

But my God blocked it

Because the battle isn’t over

So continue to encourage your sister and brother

With those simple words

They’ve yet to been told
