Daughter, broken

You made me to be at once
Your burden and your convenience
And you were never mine as much as
I am yours

Muffled midnight sobs and years
of rivers of mascara tears
tell stories I am too young to
comprehend

Morning Rose lipstick stains
wine glasses and cigarette remains
And never have I wanted more for you
to love me

Just... love me.
