I'm not the kind of person who wants to meet anybody

And that's the reason I don't have many friends

Because in the end, they will hurt you.


I was told that if I found the right people I would have them forever

I guess I haven't met them

Because everyone I met is already gone.


I try to have a friend and be myself

I guess myself is not good enough for that person

Because "I scare him away".


Those were the words of my mother

As I told her that he stopped talking to me.

And I have a problem and that is overthinking.

.

And suddenly I cared too much of the "Why"

And instantly start blaming myself

Started regretting buying him ice cream.


So when I'm myself I'm not good

So what should I do to pretend to be someone else?

And this is the reason why I don't like people.


Because in the end, they make you feel alone

When you thought you could have a friendship

They destroyed all and I have been in this too many times.


And if the reason why I can't have friends is myself

Maybe I shouldn't look for them

And all I need is a reason to let them in.
