I love you! I hate you! Go away! Come here!
All these confusing thoughts from you
Don't worry about it baby
I've been there too
You want me beside you
When no one is around
You look for me
Then hide when I'm found
You lay in my lap
When you're hurt or feeling bad
Yet, won't let me dry your eyes
When you're crying and feeling sad
I never thought it would be this hard
Or that I'd cry so many tears
Just by helping my daughter
Get through her teenage years!

We don't remember it being this difficult because we were the ones behaving like teenagers!
This too will pass. Your poem is one that many can relate to. It is well written. The flow and rhyme are on spot. Nicely done!
