Problem

When problems are all over me…
People who was around me…
Left and neglect me in seconds….
They turned me down…
At the time I need them the most…
They will act like strangers…
Will forget the times….
These are friends I care…
Friends I have helped….
In the time of there needs…
Going out from my way...
Thinking about them...
Theses are my friends...
Theses are people I know…
I wished I was selfish...
At the time of there need…
Why do you need a friend...?
When they are invisible...
At the time of trouble…
I have learned my lesson...
Never to trust any one at my troubles…
Because friends will not remain!
