Friendship

Friends can be the one who will help you from the start
But friends can also be the ones who will tear your life apart
Friends can be the people who cheer you up when you feeling sad
Or friends can be the ones who in the first place will make you go mad

A friend is someone who is always there
Someone who will listen to you and always care
Rare as is true love so is a true friend to you
And to have one is a blessing achieved by few

For most friends are only there when it's beneficial
No wonder the overrated relationship is overtly artificial
And worse is when you have a friend who wears a mask
Hiding deceits, secrets and lies which finding out is a hard task

All we can hope for is having a true good caring friend
But first we need to have those qualities to blend
For friends are important and should never be taken for granted
And you can establish this if you have someone who can help you out if u're stranded.
