I had puzzling thought yesterday as I looked back at my life.

I recalled all of my past and preasent best friends

I tried to piece together what had happened to them all

What did i do to lose them one after the other

What part of me was so revolting that even those dearest to me would flee

Why, even then, did I so deserve to be betrayed in such ways

Yet I still collect more friends to add to my regretful list of lost friends

Hoping blindly that one day someone will find true worth in me and stay by my side

Of the twelve best friends ive had in my life I pondered the eight that are now alien to me

Off in some other world it would seem

I payed extra attention however to the four that remain

How I treat them, how we interact, how they make me feel

I try so hard to study myself in these relationships to find my faults

Somehow though, im lost

Within my relationships even when I analyze everything from my gestures and terms of phrase

To my posture and breathing patterns

I cant find it

That one thing that drives everyone so far from me

But as they flee I shall continue in search of my faults

And attempt ever more so to hide it from my new best friends
