Don't Stop!

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)

Don't stop!
Fighting evil.
Don't stop!
Your faith in people,
Don't stop!
The truth and honesty.,
Being attacked.
To the max.

There is a need for everyone,
To get up and believe...
What before their eyes to see.
A smothering done...
To reality.

Don't stop!
Your hope to hold on.
Don't stop!
A rush to ignore.
Don't stop!
Those who deceive.
Don't stop!
Evaluating who wishes you misery.

Know them to be,
The ones who want to keep you unhappy.

Don't stop!
Your walking away.
Don't stop!
From those who lie.
Don't stop!
A wanting God to be there on your side.
Don't stop!
Praying every day...
Come what may!

Pray.
To do this everyday.
No matter what naysayers,
Want you to believe and to others say!

Don't stop.
To listen.
Don't stop.
To pay attention.
