The more I pined for it the more it made me desper

The more I pined for it the more it made me desperate.
A heart is not an easy thing to have, whether in love 
or a condition leading to death as mine. 
I was struggling with an enlarged one and waiting 
desperately for a miracle. 
There was a call from the hospital 
about a brain dead patient whose parents had consented 
for his heart to be donated.
I was the fortunate one the Doctors told me excitedly.
The parents of the donors though wanted to meet me.
Oh it's you said the father 
and I was speechless too, 
my mind suddenly went 
blank and the only thing 
I could see was me 
kicking the same family 
out of my house for 
not paying the rent.
