Thinking out loud...Part I

by Beth - Scorpio

It's all about you
and how I'M not there
anymore
All about how the 
whole world 
has done you wrong
and somehow
that's MY fault
Why is it
that I am nothing more
than your
"conditional daughter"
The "love" you give
carefully measured and weighed
As I try to live up to 
your syllabus
that remains illedgible to me
What is it you  think
I owe you?
MY unconditional love?
Absolute loyalty?
A crutch for you to lean on? 
No...
Then why is it
that my phone only rings
when your glass
is half empty?
