Analysis of What is wrong with me?



Friendship flows innocently,
Smiles repaid with warm embrace,
Starving for human kindness,
Hopeful after cruel interactions,

Tomorrow will be a new day,
Perhaps a new chance,
Never room for one more,
But always room for anyone,
Anyone whose not me,

Words of a mother engraved in my soul,
“So many cannot be mistaken”,
The endless torture of starvation,
Hunger for an invitation,

What is wrong with me?
