All I need is....

My cup stands empty.
All I need is a drop - a drop of human kindness.
My cup of woes runs over.
To decant my woes
And to distil my existence into a higher plane
All I need is a drop - a drop of human kindness.
As I lie listless, on a windless night
My cup sits half-empty, half-full
Then suddenly, my cup is bathed in moonlight
And my cup runneth over
With just a drop of human kindness.
