I Hate You

A poem I wrote about my relationship with my dad

I hate you,
You hate me,
That is plain to see.

You used to love me,
Day after day,
Shall we suffice to say?

Then one day,
You just stopped.
In your heart I am no longer the top.

Now you hate me,
This is clear,
I run so you won't see the tears.

I wonder, why?
Why must I cry?
I can't be good enough, no matter how hard I try.

Why don't you like me?
I don't understand.
For once in your life, be a man.

You yell at me,
For no good reason
Perhaps it will change with the seasons.

Do you love me?
I don't think so.
Why did mum have to go?



I WILL NEVER BE LIKE YOU.
