at the mall with my mother

My mother has always been a cheery ball of goo.
And before I see her
I make sure all the hair is pushed away from my eyes.
and I scrub especially hard in the shower.
I put on more make up than usual and a dress that she bought me.
I want to be her baby doll, but still i always manage to be the bearer of bad news.

  1. i like this. i know how you feel, my hair is too short, my clothes are too dull, i am not what my mama wishes me to be.

    but i guess that's how it always is,
    mother and daughter
