I hate it when I say I'm tired
And you tell me to rest
I hate it when I say I'm fine
And you don't bother to look me in the eye
I hate it when I say I'm nauseous,
And you tell me I say that too often,
I hate it when I say I feel sick,
And you tell me thats what I told my mind,
I hate it when I leave all the clues
But you don't care enough to think
I hate it when I cry past midnight
But you won't hear a thing
I hate it when I cause a scene,
And you yell and think it's over,
I hate it how my tongue slips when I talk,
And you think Its a state of mind,
I hate it when I always come last,
And you never notice me behind,
I hate it how I feel everything so deep,
And you label it "teenage angst"
I hate it how you might be right
When you say its "hormonal imbalance"
I hate it when I feel invisible
I hate it when you see right through me
I hate it when I don't feel enough
And you tell me I could've done better
I hate being the unproblematic child,
I crave attention too!
I hate it when you don't notice
I hate that I expect you to.
I hate this anger because you do your best,
But I really hate this guilt too,
I hate it when I think I overreact,
And you simply say I do,
I hate it when you don't choose me,
But I wouldn't choose me too,
I hate it all because I can see
I've got no one to blame but me

So well said all the discontent and upset circles back to oneself and the last lines tie this all together very nicely done
