Bloody Memories In Red Paint

It's all in the mind
Of a child's heart at play.
Toys of usual torment
His games for all to join in.
Oh, the joy of the crimson paint,
Using his hands to draw his  masterpieces.
One lick would give the taste of copper.

A son for a year, leaving images in red.
One such memory of the man he drew
Who blew off his own fucking head.
Son smiles at this drawing he created.
Wonderful child.

I offered him everything he needed,
From my disfigured being to his virgin innocence.
I watched him leave the piss soaked robes behind,
Slipping into a dry attire; I'm so proud.
He did not follow my path.

He drew the blood soaked memories,
But left them in a museum
Built in my mind.

    you pained a lot of intense visuals
    for the reader to follow, which i liked
    and i liked that you grabbed my attention
    at the beginning, and kept giving me reasons
    to read until I reached the end.
