The nest

What's wrong with my baby, 
What's wrong with me?
She won't latch on, 
Does she not want me?!? 

What's wrong with my baby, 
What's wrong with me?
Too early she flew, 
Was it because of me?

Nineteen years in the making, 
All the things they've been saying. 
What's wrong with my crying now, 
Wasn't she healthy, isn't she thriving?! 

What's wrong with this picture, 
What's wrong with me?
Is anything wrong with my baby, 
Or is this just a casualty? 

Though the world keeps going,
Nights and days still turning,
She won't be seeing my same sky anymore, 
I won't be gazing at her same viewing. 

What's the point of the warm sun now, 
Shining on my empty baby's room? 
What's wrong with my silly heart now, 
What's wrong with my crying of doom?!

No expectations Ara says, 
He's just a couple of decades late! 
How I hoped I had reached her heart, 
How I thought it was our fate. 

What's wrong with my baby now? 
It must be something wrong about me! 
Or was it the family, society, 
The powers that be?!!

What's wrong with this timeline, 
What's wrong with this timing? 
She says she's quite happy now, 
She said she's now free...

Why aren't I rejoicing?
 

What's wrong with my baby, 
Please anybody,
Won't you please tell me, 
What on Earth is wrong with me!?!
