The Loss of A Friend So Dear

The doctor said
The cancer is spreading
It'll form a tumor
Right in her brain
She won't live past September

I remember right then
I felt shocked and destroyed
My friend was soon to die
I wanted to scream
They needed to save her

Instead I just sat there
Instead I just cried
I waited until the day she died
I was there all along
I knew it would happen

My friend needed help
She needed it quick
It was hard to breath
Her lungs collapsed
I knew it had happened

That friend of mine
Was closer than most
She knew all my fears
She had died with pain
I died with her that day
