Do you know that love is one-sided?
Alex, did you know love can be a burden?
That untapped wine rots in its tree?
Did you ever love me—Alex?
Or should I say, FATHER.
Do you know you don’t deserve that title?
Thirteen years ago, everything changed.
You may not remember, but I do.
Do you know we used all our savings for that cake?
We waited all day and night just to say, “Daddy, happy anniversary.”
Even when mom made excuses, we knew the truth.
You never cared.
And now, do you know—
That I HATE YOU?
