I’m Sorry




I lost my patience and vomited words so bitter they cut through you like knives and now I can’t sleep because you’re out there somewhere and you’re fuming too because although you refuse to admit it you have my temper but I have no idea where you are since you turned off that app we share or blocked your GPS because you want to punish me and you hate me right now but it will pass I promise you because the mother-daughter thing is so complicated but there’s so much love here and it’s all my fault and I’m sorry I lost my patience but I trust you it’s the others I don’t trust and this society that has no respect for a girl needing a night out because she’s an angry apple pissed off with her tree and I’m sorry because it will happen again but I need to know you're safe and I need you to come home because if you don’t I will never forgive myself so please come home so I can ground you until you’re middle-aged and keep you safe
