FRIENDS


Friends come and go as they please,
True friends are rare indeed,
The ones that show up when you are in need.

The rest are all acquaintances to say,
In order to make time pass away.

The ones that last,
We have had a good past,
All in this play in which we are cast.

You should get to know yourself,
Mans best friend is himself.

We should learn from the mistakes we make,
But we foolishly keep going for a retake.

Another day, good morning hell,
What lessons for today I cannot tell.
