Mother and Daughter
By Erin

Written 2024-10-15
Mother I apologize
I never meant to throw knives
I keep on saying I was right
A voice inside tells me to fight
Mother I apologize
For my mouth is bitter
And my words are litter
But without you life loses its glitter
Mother I recognize
Your scent in a flower field
Your eyes in the ocean's deep
Your warmth in a summer's heat
