Continue to Wonder

I try to tell you things

But you choose not to listen

Yet you say we never talk

That we're not like most

Were suppose to be bestfriends

Mother, daughter the perfect bond

Or so they say

But I cant tell you anything

I try so hard to win your attention

But you never seem to agree with anything I do

Then it ends up being my fault we argue

Sometimes? Maybe..

All the time? I think not

It's almost like you pick fights with me

Just for the sake of doing it

Then you wonder why I close the door on you

Saying nothing more then what I have to

Our fights seem so pointless

Yet you make them a big deal

And you wonder why I don't like talking to you

I try so hard

But you continue to wonder why

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is really starting to get old.. I lost my father and now my mother adn I are growing further apart. No matter what I do, or say nothing seems to help.

*In my opinion* I think your mother doesnt want to loose the relationship as a mother-daughter share, maybe she wasnt that close to HER mum and she wants to make it up by being closer to you
I saw this in a movie once, thats just what I think schmidty, but you rents, theyre weird and they dont understand
Teenagers are a whole other speices
