"A Little Prayer "

Dear God,

I need to ask a little prayer,

because I know how" much you care.

It's for a friend I love so dear,

who I heard got wasted by pot and beer.

I looked at her right in the eye,

she looked at me and made me cry.

I knew the pain she felt inside,

for I could feel it too.

And as we lay there on the floor, I felt our friendship grow.

I called 911, the ambulance came. They drove her far away.

Now I sit inside and think, "Will she see another day?"

It's Thursday now, the times gone by, I've waited for so long.

I called the hospital just to hear

"I'm sorry, dear, she's gone…"
