You know what's sad?
when I assume it's to me until i get to the third stanza and figure it out.
sorry she's doing that. at least if it's who i assume it is.

I like this a lot.
I pictured the message to a mom who's a wreck or along the lines of that. 'so you dont look like your parents do'.
until the fourth stanza I think?
then I decided I liked it better your way :)
nice work.
