Why do you hate me?
I sure would like to know
Why you suddenly threw me aside
And let me rot
And wallow
In this filthy pool of painful sorrow
I gave to you all that I had
The emotions that I so deeply felt
I sincerely expressed
Yet you continually hurt me
With your carelessness
So now there's nothing left
But hate and regret
Regretting that I let you see
What was buried
So deeply inside me
You took my heart
And threw it in the raging flames of hell
And let me slowly burn to death in agony
You selfishly stole the light of happiness
That you planted inside of me
So this one question
Still remains
Why do you hate me?
