Open heart surgery

Last night I felt rejected by my 11 month old



She cried every moment her mother left the room



At sleep time was no better, as no hand was better than mum\'s



Left in a pool of darkness, wandering what I have done!



Why does she push me away, is it what I\'ve become



As I open up my heart, I see that unwanted reflection



Morning has now sprung, I get up still foggy in slum



Met with the light of little Maarii, I go down in the den (please, don\'t cry)



Leaving her to play hearing nothing but joy



Until I smelt the poo and thought, ha here we go!



Then suddenly that inner dialogue said let it all flow



The rhyme hit me quick, as like lighting in a blink



A thunder left roaring, knowing I can\'t deny



The only rejection is rooted deep within, until I embrace life



This cycle will not end, so I open up my heart to perform surgery



Most of this misery I feel, starts and ends with me



I truly wished for this last key, a child matching my arrival here



If you ever read this my dear, know love always conquers fear



Thank you for helping me shed theses beautiful tears



May we all remember, life is always what you make it



Unconditional love was at the start and there\'s no way to fake it
