A true friend

They can be seen everywhere

Tearful expressions, heavy hearts

People go throughout this life

as though everything is falling apart



Loved ones have departed

Taking away thier love and thier light

Others come with hurtful remarks

Some others with judgemental looks



Yet there are a few rare souls

People who do not seek to hurt

Who are true lovers and friends



In them is love expressed and defined

So I encourage you today

Be a true friend

Show honest compassion

In a world that is severely lacking
