When you do the things you do at night
Your iPhone as your only light
A razor across your flesh conquers fear
Blood your contribution instead of tears.
To cope you say, my daughter, my daughter.
But we both know,
you get high.

I come to you with one request
To see yourself at your very best
Behind your eyes your beautiful mind
And all that marketing *******,
Leave it behind.  Because,

You are you, always have been, you
need nothing than to laugh again,
BE YOURSELF, HAVE NO FEAR,
My daughter, my daughter.

Life and death, you said
A blessing and a curse, so chose you said
To live and

Embrace
This moment and the next one
as well because your touch
Your touch
enlivens me
