Friendship A friend is a gift so rare, so true A mirror of love reflecting you. Easy to find but hard to keep, A true friendship runs in both ways strong and deep. A friend stands by you, In good times and bad too. They bring joy and wipe a tear, Always staying close and near. A true friendship is built on trust, With honesty and care a must. It grows stronger year by year, And keeps a loyal friend near. But not all friends will choose to stay, Some smile at you then drift away. Some friends will judge, some friends will lie, They vanish fast without saying goodbye. They talk about you when you're not around, And share your secrets on shaky ground. A sudden silence will be the space, When you need comfort you will see a non-familiar face. The bond you trusted just falls apart, And leaves a cold, empty ache in your heart. The memory of their laughter starts to fade, A heavy price for the trust you paid. Lorine✍️📃
