Organ Donor

When you collapsed both my lungs, I couldn't breathe.
But when you collapsed my heart,
I couldn't love.

I waited in line for a transplant
But he never came around. 

So I settled for a damaged organ 
and every night my heartbeat grew a little less fond of you, 
and a little more fond of the surgeon.
