A Fickle Thing

That human friendships can be a fickle thing just happens to be so
Your best friend at the present may become your future foe
The glue that binds a friendship is often not hard to break
It can come unstuck quite quickly with self interest at stake
Last year they were the best of  friends and with their other friends did socialize
As is said of familiarity to contempt it can give rise
It was because of a failed business deal between them that mistrust did set in
And when big money is at stake friendship does seldom win
Nowadays they treat each other as strangers wheever they do meet
And pass each other in silence whilst walking on the street
The frioendship that was between them is a thing of the past
And only feelings of bitterness between them seem to last
Of the praises of companionship many may like to sing
But as is said of friendship it can be a fickle thing.
