    Picture Perfect (made from scratch):

    Broken frame nailed to the wall,
    it overlooks all that is in sight
    Uneven lines and grotesque shades of red,
    beneath stained glass, it tries to hide

    I made you from scratch
    I've poured sweat and blood into getting you out
    I made you from scratch
    and eventhough I created you, I could not take you down

    Exposed to the world as art,
    not one dares to look away
    Such a disasterpiece, who knows
    what price the maker had to pay

    What experience had been made?
    Portraying a figure, lacking love
    What price had to be payed?
    Tracing lines with his own blood

    I made you from scratch
    I've poured sweat and blood into getting you out
    I made you from scratch
    and eventhough I created you, I could not take you down​

    Sounds like a father hating his son...

    It was well written. I am not sure if I would classify "disasterpiece" as cheesy or clever yet lol.

    Good job though :)

    I figured I was likely off.

    To me, it just kept repeating the idea of creating a person you hated though, so I couldn't get away from my idea of a parent.

    Well, you're really, really close!

    I mean...you're welcome to see whatever you'd like to in this, but when I wrote 'art' I actually meant art. Like a picture you draw, you may not like it, but when someone hangs it in their gallery, you can't 'take it down'

    Still...I guess the concept of a father hating his son hits the nail on the head too :)

    EDIT: I always see art as something, you put you heart and soul into, which is why I used words like blood and sweat ^_^

    I obviously wasn't telling you your meaning was wrong or anything, you wrote it :D.

    I was just explaining why I saw it as I did.
