A small little flame of hope still alive,
A shared joke - ah, so he still can smile,
A wisp of tenderness framing an iron heart,
Not a robot yet, still a man.
A flicker of amusement in those tired eyes,
An honest pause - is what I'm doing right,
An involuntary prayer, a silent thanksgiving,
Not a robot yet, still a man.
A chance moment of togetherness,
An unexplained tug - the heart's still alive,
An unsolicited act of kindness,
Not a robot yet, still a man.
