True friends



I don't know
Whether
The time was good or bad
I had some friends
They left me alone
When I lost everything
That I had!
Now I have regained all
That I had lost earlier
My friends have rejoined me again
Even friend's friends have also come
Aren't they a selfish lot?
We all witness in daily life
A friend in need is...
A friend indeed!
