What Makes You Hate Me So

What Makes You Hate Me So? What makes you despise Every move that I make. You see not the effects That continue to break. You break me inside Slowly I drown. Criticisms you speak Suffocates all around. All around crumbles down I stand there alone. You smother my soul Though you do not know. Know that you hurt My feelings I cry. Yet you do not care Can’t understand why. Why this way you act To destroy what is built. Maybe from anger Or possibly guilt. Guilty I feel For letting you down. Yet you brought it yourself And I cannot be bound. Bound by your mistakes And the problems you create. They are not my own Yet still you do hate. Hate how I live That I am free. That you want all I’ve come to be.

I liked how you linked each stanza with the next...also, it was nice to see the positive change in the end, though I'd rather have had it build gradually than jump so suddenly at the last. Thanks for sharing your poem.
