My dearest *

Observe your surroundings they always said

So I did 

Then I began to wonder

Well, mother 

why does he look at you with such disgust

why does he talk to you with such hatred 

why he never wants to hold you

why he doesn't want to kiss your pain away

why he never asked about your day 

why the times he did ask it turned into a fight

why were there so many problems

Observe your surroundings they always said 

So I AM 

Now I begin to wonder 

Well,

why does he look at me with such love 

why does he talk to me with such enthusiasm

why does he always want to hold me 

why does he kiss my pain away

why the first thing he does is ask about my day

why the times we talk we lose track of time 

why no matter what the issue we always find our way back

Observe your surroundings they said 

So here it is!

Observe the surroundings and do not make the same mistakes of others. Good advice. Valentine

This is a great piece of work to convey learning what we do and don't want from observing the relationships around us!

Observe...i like that word and things that it is capable of doing...as in You're poem.
it's "sounds" real, touching and "in the moment", i loved that. Really Nice !
