A Tale of Two Clinics

The young couple had tried for years but it wasn't meant to be In shedding so many tears of a baby they might not get to see As again they went to another doctor for he could be the one Though now nearly poor they just wanted a daughter or a son Across town was another building much busier than the first They were of the opposite guild as I could of said a lot worst Money was paid for the opposite and two now becomes one Something no one will admit and then it's all said and done A young woman leaving as the couple passes by on their way No your eyes aren't deceiving this just one in a very long day Then the light turned red as that very woman began to cross No matter what I said, I couldn't describe their feeling of loss As soon the light had turned, her sad eyes so intently trained For in one what had yearned, in the other it had only drained Now too far away to see she turned back around in her seat Thinking if only that was me, how our life would be complete
