My heart stops beating but life doesn’t stop there
Another’s life is fading but now there is
kidney to spare,
My life on this world is now gone
But through another a little piece of it lives on,
I am the receiver speaking and my life can now restart
Through the generosity of the donor’s gift as they depart,
Both my family and I will forever speak of them in
our humble and thankful circle And we shall never ever forget the tragedy and the miracle.
