What Happens Next

He's standing there with

the box gripped tight in his hand

the words that came from her

mouth he just can't understand

sounded like she said no but what

he heard was something

like I'm not that kind of girl

it was an immune response

a skin graft gone wrong

he was trying to transplant

his heart to hers

but she wasn't accepting

only rejecting

how harmful is that

tellin' the man to take the ring back

so he's standing there

with his strongest organ

in his hand, his heart

big in passion

but small enough to fit in a box

he thought they were compatible

never imagined she'd resist

treat him like some foreign

organism

now she dares to say lets go back

to the way we were

no idea

that immunological incompatability

doesn't get a second chance

rejection, dejection is the same as

ejection an attack of the flesh

that one can never retrack

what happens next

is someone new

another transplant

no more her

his heart's in a box

at the bottom of lovesick lake.
