'how many friends do you have?' i asked her just now.
she started to count when i rephrased.
'how many real friends do you have?'
yes she has a lot.
i have a few.

i thought real friends stick through thick and thin.
what do we call those who appear when they need a place to stay, problems to share.
and disappear when they find the same comfort elsewhere.
then reappear when you have something more to offer?

i don't mind having few friends.
at least i know they are true.
