Such a simple thing she did for me
An everyday request
My response was unexpected
She looked up from her desk
Her eyes fixed to mine
And softly began to vent
She asked me if I knew how much
That simple word had meant
Maybe she had a bad day
With people on her case
Maybe she had enough
Of this soul destroying race
A simple gesture, a simple word
In a moment can serve you more
You never know how kind it is
How it can lift and soar
A word away x 15
