A good friend would wait for you; <br />So you could both walk to the bus; <br />A bad friend would just leave impatient; <br />“I’d rather go hang with Gus.” <br /> <br />A good friend would help with a chore; <br />Even if it’s taking out the trash; <br />A bad friend would just smirk; <br />“If only you gave me cash.” <br /> <br />A good friend would listen; <br />To whatever you have to say; <br />A bad friend would cover your mouth; <br />“Quit blabbering away! ” <br /> <br />A good friend would say “Come on over.” <br />Whenever you feel like you’re alone; <br />A bad friend would yell at your face; <br />“Just go on back home! ” <br /> <br />A good friend would phone; <br />To ask how you are; <br />A bad friend wouldn’t care; <br />“Wanna go to the bar? ” <br /> <br />A good friend will cheer you up; <br />Whenever you feel sad; <br />A bad friend would laugh; <br />“Well, that’s just too bad.” <br /> <br />A good friend would stand up for you; <br />When blamed for a crime; <br />A bad friend would walk away; <br />“Oh look at the time.” <br /> <br />A good friend would come to your funeral; <br />And leave flowers in your wake; <br />A bad friend would blow it off; <br />“It was his mistake! ”<br /><br />Jessica Lopez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/differences-between-a-good-friend-and-a-bad-friend/
