I gazed into the river,
watched it flow slowly by.
Just a moments thought, it was
and nothing more.

I washed the knife,
looked at the blade shine on my wrist.
Just a moments thought, it was
and nothing more.

I tidied the hose in the garden
glanced at a tree, the branch above.
Just a moments thought, it was
and nothing more.

I stood at the roadside
waiting for the next speeding truck.
Just a moments thought, it was
and nothing more.

Today a young lady jumped
An 8 storey fall...
in just a moment!
She was nothing more.


With just a moments thought
could we have done more?
