Prosperity curse

Last night I had friends
As many as stars in sky
We were all in paradise
Seems we were born to fly
But, where did friends go?

Diamonds, silvers and golds
Never fading but bold
Everyday came with new folks
Who turned blood, I thought
Now, where did friends go?

Am I now an island?
In times of prosperity
Friends were plentiful
Now that the well is dried-
Oh, where did friends go?

Prosperity made them come,
Adversity was their text
Pray I get back on my feet
Strong, wise, fit and firm
But, where did friends go?

    Nice… But I think it might be easier to grasp the lines with the proper punctuation… just my thought… 😊
