Good men lie to be good

 

The truth hurts 

But good men are too good,

For peace’s sake 

A lie is told

Like the stars in the skies

Never betraying the moon;

Good men lie 

That all hearts may be warm

And all faces smile.


Attempting the impossible:

Taking all hurts 

And living in wants, 

Giving all there is

Even when its the last,

Smiling like the Bible says

Never minding their cares;

That more can be given to others

Yet never waiting 

To receive that smile

That says Thank You.
