A true friend will be there for you in happy times,
In the saddest times they are right besides you.
A true friend will not hesitate to scold you,
For your short coming, and it does not mean they don’t care.

A true friend will acknowledge your strength,
And will help you in overcoming your fears.
A true friend will give you a shoulder to cry on,
And feel obliged while doing so.

A true friend can’t turn their back on you,
Even, without a solution to a problem.
A true friend is right beside you,
When, the whole world walks out on you.
