Little Acts

I walked alone feeling lonely down the street, she walked pass, smiled at me
it's a miracle, my pain is gone now I feel am not alone

I lost my balance and fell thought no one saw or did it matter to anyone, at least so I thought
She rushed and with a smile stretched out her hand to raise me up

I cried because it hurt so bad, the pain in my heart no one can ever understand then I heard 
her tender voiced, hidden beneath a sweet, lovely smile
So she is not dumb after all
Hush it will get better, I feel your pain and Understand the why you desperately desire to ask
At last I understand in clear terms that the little acts of love are what really matters

she matters, at least I mattered among the least

It's always uplifting to have someone offer a hand when we need it most, Dalung. Truly a compassionate "Little Act."
