I think that your problem comes from the weak starting runes and first item.

From what I can tell, your problems come from weak lane sustain early game, and the fact that your damage is delayed.

Basically, you start with about 50-51 damage, and good mana regen.

I usually start with 70 damage, which obviously hits harder and my runes also give me good mana regen. This gives me a very strong early game, and I can also start, as you can tell from my AD, with Doran's Blade. This means that you will have better last hits, and easier harassment, since you will have to spend less time dealing the same ammount of damage, therefore less backlash from minions.

Now concerning your first Advanced item, I'd say that Manamune is a bad item to build first. It takes a while to become good, and still does nothing for your lane sustain. I'd recommend getting an item that gives life steal, and some health potions instead. This way, you can't be kicked out of the lane, and then zoned out.
