One Eternal Moment

what kind of a moment in eternity is this?

inside the smallest creation
beyond the farthest universe

one small moment
yet so overwhelmingÃ¢Â?Â¦

I have but one candle in my hand
this moment, so dark
my light cannot dispel it

I have but one song in my heart
this moment, so sad
my notes cannot uplift it

I have but one smile on my lips
this moment, so tragic
my bliss cannot alleviate it

I have but one story on my mind
this moment, so lonely
my tale cannot befriend it

what kind of a moment in eternity is this?

and why will this moment not pass?
