Why did the germs
have to take over your body
they could have taken mine instead
even right now, i will swap readily
i feel totally helpless right now
i can’t bear to see my friend suffer
every time we speak on the phone
in care, pity and plight, my body withers
i guess this is a part and parcel
of being friends with someone so sweet
i can’t wait till the day you feel better
so i can take you out for a treat
get well soon
