What's a daughter to do when her mother tells her shes done? Does she cry? Does she quit on her Mom to? Does she laugh and say "whatever?"

How does a daughter prove that she loves her Mom? Does she agree with everything her Mother says even if it's right or wrong? Does she try to talk to her Mom, or does she look the other way?

When does a daughter quit on her Mom? When she tell her daughter she hates her? When her mom says so many mean things that the daughter's heart tares, literally?

Why does a daughter love her Mom? is it because it's a natural thing? Is it because her Mom tells her to, or is it something more?

what does a daughter have to do to make her mother understand she needs a Mom? When the daughter doesn't return her phone calls? When the daughter dies before the Mom?

What's a daughter to do when her Mother hurts her? Does she forget her Mom? Does she let it go and start over? Does she yell and scream? Does she go to her friends who are always there for her no matter what? Tell me, what's a daughter to do?


The author's comments:
This came to me first as a song. I realized that at this age(teen years/high school) Mothers and daughters start losing their relationship with one another. Daughters depend on their Moms for so much and sometimes Mom is not there. They get in to a big fight and everything changes. I decided it would be better as a poem instead.
