Far and few between <br />True friends rarely seen <br />It is said we are but a reflection <br />Of the company we keep <br />Is it not a sad day for me <br />To realise the difference is so steep <br /> <br />For I have but a few friends in this life <br />Few who have supported in strife <br />And yet what I have given blindly <br />To often it seems now <br />Will never be repaid in full <br />They are to selfish somehow <br /> <br />But for those who cared at all <br />I promise you today <br />That the 'friends' who lost my favour today <br />Their share upon you shall fall <br /> <br /> <br />(8 August 2007)<br /><br />Jude's Child<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/friends-or-are-they/
