That Someone Cares

To be able to move someone
To make one feel something
     A true achievement that would be
And not an easy one
Talent and skill needed for sure
Experience, thoughtfulness
and something else, something more
Is that something which is learned?
Or is in innate?
What separates the greats
                       from the average?
I think that one has to be able to
possess and understand deep feeling,
before it can be conveyed to another
yet many do feel
In the end, I suppose it is passion
which drives and the hope
                       that someone cares
that stirs this quest and which
   will not relent until it is achieved
