Paint me this picture

**Please read the whole thing to understand it**

Paint me a picture
Paint the day away
Use all of the colors
Use red for Love
Or blood
Use the touch of black
For fear and darkness
Use a dab of yellow
For a light in the darkness
Or trust
Use a lot of blue
For the tears we cry
Through happiness and sadness
Use brown for the touch of
The dirt you put us through

Now paint me a picture of the past
Tell me
What do you feel?
What do you hear?
What do you taste?
What do you see?

Well I feel
I feel the touch of warm love
I hear laughter of a family that loves each other very much
I taste the tender care for one another and never giving up on one another
And I see a family working together to make everything seem so simple and easy.
And an endless devotion of everything of a family should act

But now paint a picture of the present
Paint another day away
What do you feel?
What do you hear?
What do you taste?
What do you see?

Well you don't half to say a thing

Because I feel
I feel hatred but a mother trying to take care of her children
I hear screaming and crying but yet again a mother trying to love her two kids all she can
I taste a sour touch of hatred from a father who doesn't care. But a mother saying I love you
To both her misunderstood children and her husband
I see a mother trying to do her best for her children and her husband
And a family's bond that use to be strong but now it is breaking into pieces like a puzzle missing some pieces

Now let us try the future
Take a hold of that paint brush
And paint this day away
Except this time this one might take more than a day
Well tell me once again
What do you feel?
What do you hear?
What do you taste?
What do you see?

Well I will tell you the story, this will be if you only change the way you act to wards your kids and wife

I feel a mother of her tender care she gave both her kids and her husband. And they give it in return esp. the two kids because they never gave up on their mother.
I hear screams of laughter coming from the kids and from the Mother and Father. And finally I Love You. And I am sorry for everything
I taste the same warm and tender care and love of the family accept it's stronger.
I see a bond that will never break again, Love conquers all.
And a family who loves each other and that same sparkle of devotion still sparkles in their eyes

This is dedicated to my dad, I love him very much but he is changing so much(not in a good way either :( )...i hope you liked! But it is all my emotion to wards my father
*Thanks for reading...<3*

    Wonderful poem sister. Bitterness and love played a huge part...it made meh cry! X.x hah I want u and ur dad to spend sum quailty time together! u need to tell him, DAD I NEED SUM TLC! Tell him wut is going on. Tell him ur suspiciousions....i no it may beh hard, but sumtimes u need to do it. I do it to my dad...to my mom? itz impossible. she wont listen :P but anyway, in this poem, i felt the rivalry of love and hate.
    Great job...

    But one question...

    What would u rather feel toward ur father?
    Love...?
    Hate...?
    Whichever (ima guessing love :D) U need to tell him that u love him, and u want to change things.

    Anyway, this is getting long sissy XD
    Love u!!!
