/***/You and You/***/

They say
"like mother like daughter"
well why not
like father.
Is it because
I'm a daughter.
But look
I am your daughter.
Even though
you don't want
me near a part
of you makes
a part of me.
Therefore I'm
not me without
being you. And
her "motherdear"
does he see you in me.
You, are you
why I have no him.
Should I blame me,
you, or him.
Why am I
a combination
of both of you,
and what both of you do not want.
Is it my face
or the way I express my place.
The middle I am,
yet the bottom I feel.
Love,
where does it fit
because the one
I love says
"you must always love".
But if love
doesn't love me
then why should I like love.
You
with your rage and your guilt,
and you
with your shame and your pain.
So this just leaves me
with only confusion to blame.
I take it, yes.
And face it everyday.
May I take it
and twist it
and flip it around
becasue I
cannot let this
hold me and break me down.
So when I,
yes when I am me
it will be too late
to claim that part of me
which you just couldn't love.
But me,
I will be me
with you
and your rage and your guilt,
and you
and your shame and your pain.
So thankyou to you
and thankyou to you
because of both of you
I am now me.
