Sometimes By Our Words

Sometimes by our words we are known to deceive But in truth we are only on what we believe And if your thoughts tell you to do others ill You most certainly can and you certainly will The person with empathy never deliberately harms anyone It is only those lacking in compassion bad things to others have done Some on their lives journey on the road to enlightenment have lost their way And violence towards others to them seems okay Those with compassion for the suffering of others can empathize And that their actions can cause grief and suffering to other people they do realize You do not need to believe in a God for to know wrong from right The gifts of compassion and empathy does come from insight By your treatment of others you can make the World better to live in Since kindness and compassion are born within.
