My Mistake
my mistake was talking to my mom
because she set's me off like a tripped off bomb
to think my words would change her mind
to be the nice and loving kind
but she is mean, mean to me
through her heart of stone she will never see
the best kind of daughter i can truly be
i just want her to want me back
because a self esteem is what i lack
i just want to change her view on life
so her words don't slice through my heart like a knife
to change her heart of stone to a heart of love
so our hearts can fly free with the souls of a dove
so i can see her for the good person she could someday be
the only person that might just be like me
