to dad

---

Paint me a pretty picture, Paint it with my blood, From open veins, A messed up childhood. Paint me a pretty picture, I won't make a sound, Cut deeper and deeper, My worlds already upside down. Paint me a pretty picture, Cut me till I die, But don't forget when it's over, You bled me dry…

I too, was a bit confused as to who was being cut. In away the third stanza makes more sense in terms of bleeding you, needing or demanding far more than he gives. Sad, but well done. Good write! Steve

I got a little confused when you turned the cutting object from him to you, wondering if you meant to say it, then read the next line and clearly you did. One criticism from Elite's resident spelling and grammar nerd. "My world's already upside down" You forgot to hyphenate the contraction. If the contractions get too painful, don't be afraid to ask the doctor for some Demerol. I've been working in a hospital waaaay too long. ~scienceyear~

very good, i liked the emotions you put into it, and the way you told your dad to cut you instead of what most people would say, is awesome, most people would tell the other to cut themselves. i loved it. -trinity
