Question

A mother who belittles her daughter

Tells her she's not good enough

Her words like acid rain

Drowning out all other love

She tears her down and builds herself up

To make her feel she's less than

The daughter's heart slowly breaks

As her mother continues to press

The daughter's worth is erased

As her mother's words take flight

But the daughter still loves her mother

No matter how hard she tries to fight

So the daughter carries on

Living by her mother's rules

Hoping one day she'll see

That she's not just some mere fool

What are the literary devices used?
