I Have Many Friends

I have many friends,
All of them I’d like to keep,
But most of them make me feel weak.
I don’t get why they cant keep my secrets,
But maybe It’s just their weakness.
I’m not going to trust them anymore,
But then it's not going to be like before.
Most times I feel excluded,
The words they say leave me wounded.
To them, am I different?
Or just really ignorant.
I see them whispering in each others ears.
They could be saying things about me that are nice,
But the chances are like rolling a 7 on a 6 sided dice.
I have many friends,
But most friendships have to come to an end.
