Analysis of A friend in need is a real friend.



A friend in need is a real friend.

When we are down by problems,
then we will experience,
three types of characters.

One who really pays sympathy,
towards our problems,
and will not show surprising apathy.

One who will provid us,
some solutions without any vested interest,
and makes with us a friendly nexus.

Another one is a pretender.
A crook disguised as friend
but a great intriguer.

This mundane world,
is polluted by third one.
and proves us in our difficulties very cold.
