A poem written by Ekah Theodora(a student of Mass Communication) at Babcock University.

                REMEMBER NOW FOR TOMMORROW'S SAKE

                                                               In my fallen estate i am mocked,
                                                                  I am disgraced and cast,
                                                                    Why am I treated so,
                                                       Is it because I have no beauty or enchantment
                                                         Or I lack good clothes or perfume worn,
                                                     Nonetheless I shall not remain like this forever,
                                                             Mock me no more for i shall rise,
                                                               And i shall with vengeance,
                                                          To be re-crowned with my lost glory,
                                                             And now you will come to me,
                                                 Claiming to be a friend even when you were a foe,
                                        Thus in my exalted state I shall only look down upon you and ponder,
                                                         Why judge the book by its cover?
                      But for you my friends who stood by me even when it seemed i was hopeless,
                                                            You knew I would rise again,
                                                                    You never did despair,
                                                     Here is a toast for time and a time for remembrance,
                                                              For I was only gold in its impure form.

                                        
                                                                                                                                 -Theodora Ekah

we do know that some times in our lives friends only choose us for what they can gain from us be it fame or pleasure but nonetheless,deep down in our hearts we do know who our real friends are.
