• I hate how you treat me.
    They always said
    “Ask if you need help”
    So I did,
    I swallowed my pride
    And asked.
    All you did was ridicule
    And I broke on the inside.
    I loved you and envied you
    For your wisdom and knowledge
    Now I only hate
    You called me stupid
    Without ever saying the word
    You made me feel useless
    Without ever saying anything
    To me.
    No, you only ever say those things
    In front of others.
    But it always gets back
    I always find out.
    Then, today, you didn’t even show
    That you cared
    That I could hear you
    You gave me no room to defend myself
    You only gave your petty observations.
    And yet, you ask me why I hate.
