True Companionship

In good times, many stand by your side, Sharing joy, their smiles are wide. But who truly stays, through thick and thin, Your tough times will reveal within. When troubles loom and sorrows arise, And dark clouds gather in your skies. Those who hold your hand tight, Are the ones who shine in the darkest night. In happiness, friends are plenty, But in sorrow, who remains steady? When the world seems to drift away, The true ones are those who stay. Good times bring many near, But hard times show who is dear. These are your genuine friends, Standing with you till the very end. So recognize the faces that remain, In every storm, through joy and pain. Those who never waver, come what may, Are your true companions, in night and day.
