Everyone always tells you, that your daughter is so well
But not well enough for you.
Because that’s not well enough
Dad says you sound just like your mom
And I know that’s not good because that lead to the divorce
Everyone always saying you look just like your mom
So every time I look in the mirror I’m reminded of you
The first time I cut was because of you
But two days ago again the reason was you
I hate myself because I know it’s true
I’m just like you
because you were my hero
But now you're more like my Kryptonite
Spitting me into two
Killing me slowly
When you say you want me to be better than you
But you do it the wrong way
You bring me down,
make me think I’m worthless because you say that too

Your poem flows really well, and sounds very sincere. Still, I could be wrong but judging by your poem it seems as though you have some unresolved issues with her. Remember there is power in forgiveness. Love conquors all. Kill meanness with kindness, and don't let anything kill your spirit.
Persistence is key
