What is it I do?

What is it I do that draws them to me?

Are they blind? Can they not see?

I ruin their lives, yet they still persist

Am I not with the program? Is there something I've missed?

They lurk, they stare, they watch with awe

I act as normal, starting nothing at all

And yet they continue to lust over someone taken

If they think that I'll leave him, they are mistaken

Another friend falls to the fate of such admiration

But now my sanity is left back at the station

Along with my patience, which is held back by rage

Shaking this empty and hollering cage

Through losing many friends, I shut myself away

Another one follows, and another will stray

And I'll try to be a friend, to not push them out

Try to keep calm, not wanting to shout

They don't give me much choice, I'm forced by my will

Because they keep pushing, taunting me still

I'm happy in life now, I've found the one

Yet friends will still try to have their 'fun'

To try to win me, but I'm no trophy

In fact I'm nothing. I'm just me.
