Surgical Precision

I pulled my ribs apart and showed you my heart
your strike was true and your aim was too

Surgical precision, a mortal incision
Sliced my heart in twain, you didn't think it would cause pain

Your aim couldn't have been truer
nor could it have made me bluer

I gave you my heart like a baby bird in a nest
but that wasn't enough, instead you ripped it out of my chest

I reached out my hand in friendship and love,
but you severed it clean, with your scalpel and glove

You're a surgeon. Can you sew up this broken heart? I didn't think so.
All you can do is cut away and take,
do you think you can really replace what the seed of young love did make?

Actually, I'm really really proud of you Lily. There aren't that many female surgeons out there. That's a real accomplishment. I love you Lily.
