Bitter
"There is no 'us and them' in my book"
And yet you tear my page out
"I have been very tolerant-"
But yet you feel the need to shout

Your words are lies like the poison you spout.

"You are only making up a defense."
Oh, so now you're getting mad?
"Fathers will scold their children"
What about the scars that we had?

I'm tired of pain while you sit there, glad.

"You don't have to fear-"
But I have since I was young
"Just trying to teach you."
To what, hold my tongue?

I can't, too many times I've been stung.

I have to love you forever
You're stuck in my life
But I hope you rot for this
And for our endless strife

I'll forgive you, but my hatred is forever rife.
