Heart Surgery

Heart Surgery

by PJ Perry

Today was to be my life saving operation

But I've been told I may not survive

My heart is used up, there's no sensation

It's a miracle that I'm still alive

I may not be able to love again

The surgeons have said they apologise

Because poisons have now tainted my brain

I may lose the feeling to comfort cries

What once beat red may now beat blue

Instead of love it could be stone cold

I would hate it to experience déjà vu

I'd hate to live this way till I'm old

I've given more love than any man

I've asked for nothing in return

And now that I've just had my heart scanned

They're shaking there heads with concern

I'm afraid that we are far too late

Never again will you love and laugh

The poison has spread; you're now filled with hate

All that's left is a life of a sociopath

I tried to cry tears but I couldn't

The one's that came out were crocodiles

I tried to love but my heart wouldn't

So now I shine out evil smiles

If anyone now says they love me

And their love for me is never ending

I'll tell them I love them for eternity

Then I'll spend the rest of my life pretending
