Suddenly

I was told Tuesday
Of what happened to you on Saturday

It came as a shock to me
Because I just saw you last week

My prayers go out to you
In hopes that you'll make it safely through

Your best friend misses you
And wishes to see you soon

I hate the fact that you have to be in the hospital
And I wish your situation wasn't so critical

I don't know the pain you're going through
But hopefully, my prayers will get you through

Hopefully, your visit won't be so long
And I hope and pray that nothing goes wrong

If I had one wish, I'd wish to go back to Saturday
And you'd never have to suffer any pain

Even though we wish you were near
We can send our love from here

We won't forget about you
Because everyday, we'll pray for you
