True Friendships

'Tis said we cannot change our blood relations but we get to choose our every friend And some friendships last for a brief span and some friendships in death only end True friendships transcend disagreements true friends as true friends do remain You lose nine for one reason or other out of every ten new friends you do gain True friendships do not die in a Season true friendships they live on and on Your true friend will surely stand by you when your so called friend from you has gone When you are in financial trouble your friends from you won't turn away When you are forsaken by all others your true friend as a true friend will stay you are in deep financial trouble the financial company has re-possessed your car Your moods are bordering the suicidal 'tis now you know who your friends are Your true friends would never forsake you and though your friends may be few in the town Your true friends will never ignore you they will help you when you are down You cannot choose your blood relations though your friends you surely can choose Though some of the friends you have chosen on your journey through life you do lose.
