The Moment
Hands shaking, hold them steady
Look into his eyes
Start to speak, can't be heard
Move to let them pass by
Speak louder, though they hear you
Wait for his reply
Here it comes, not the right one
Feel how quickly hope dies
Try to smile, broken inside
There's sympathy in those eyes
Feel better, really smile
Give in without a fight
He understands, smiles back
Will he one day end this plight?
