Surgery Fears
Feel a flutter deep within
do not think cupid will play
my heart is arythmic, blood is thin
heart condition here to stay.
Hope the surgery be survived
cannot do plans for the future
would wish and hope and stay alive
life ebbs-away through bad sutures.
Need good surgeons to do good job
this sex-change dear, will take some time
if they fail , I'm not worth five bob
told "don't worry" all will be fine.
