What sin have I made? What rule did I break? Who did I cross? What have I ever done to anyone to deserve an upbringing? Loneliness, mockery, embarrassment; all but a few companions of mine Like the great and mighty oak, they only grew stronger with time But regrets of this I have none Just that I wish someone would have stayed Someone would have realized that I am but just a human I too need love, I too get lonely at times, I am but humane, am I just jaded? But none stayed, none even tried They all left and will continue to leave I'll try to hold on but eventually they'll go Eventually they'll all leave me alone Was I this bad in my previous birth? Or was I just born with such luck? I honestly don't care any more because I know my conviction today is definite For the one who'll stay, the one I'll never let go of, What have I not done right?

What Have I Done Wrong?
