Unintentionally

Be careful what you say others

For even actions based

On the best of intentions

Can backfire horribly.



I’ve lost many a friend

Trying to be amiable but

Coming off as trying too hard

And therefore bothersome.



You may be trying to

Build up your friendship

But in the process destroy it

Without ever meaning to.
