Negative Pie

The words of destruction, comes from a heart full of anger, and pain,
and when we fight fire, with fire, then we are also to blame.
 In a world of many negative thoughts, feelings and actions, you see,
the goodness of the Lord, should show through, you and me.
 Forgiveness and understanding, goes a long way,
while patience, and kindness, saves the day.
 It’s not always easy, on the receiving side,
to stand in goodness and there abide.
 To speak back life, when you’ve been given death,
with words of encouragement in every breath.
 What others think, feel, say and do, 
should never bring the negative out of you.
 Somethings doesn’t even deserve a reply,
unless you’re hungry for a piece, of their negative pie.
