mum always breaks my heart
she always knows how to tear me apart
she can very cheerily be so nice
the wrong word can make her turn to ice
most of the time she's distant
solid, fortified, distinctly resistant
but intent on my every word choice
note the changing of tone in her voice
sometimes she's odd, accepting;
after two days she's bored and back to neglecting
searching out 'wrongs', use to ream me
she knows the exact strings to pull and unseam me
and it hurts even worse when I see that she tries
she always gets my hopes up & dashes them in front of my eyes
then she goes into her fantasy land
we're Lori&Rory; Gilmore, talking men
I try to play along; it's hilarious to see
that as hip as she likes to think she is, she's as bad at this as me
