People

Everyone seems to be wearing a 
mask

Who in this world can I trust?

Everyone seems so self centered, 
reluctant to share

Is there someone who truly cares?

Sometimes these people are 
amicable

Sometimes these people are cold

What exactly are they?

A friend or a foe?

The world is a cruel place Andrew. We have to sieve through a multitude of people to find that true friend but it is worth it in the end. Well written free verse!
