He is gone. I don't know if I can go on anymore. He was my brother, my best friend, my protector. He never said anything, none of us suspected anything. That night, everything was the same, we watched a movie together for a change and he went to bed. I never expected this. Why couldn't I stop him, why didn't I know? Weren't there any signs that I missed, where did I go wrong, was I such a bad brother? How can I go on? He's gone forever and he's not coming back. God, why, why, why, why?

Michelangelo collapsed into a heap on his bed, sobbing, he was overcome with grief. Raphael was dead and he felt like his world had ended.

A few hours later, he began to write, to pour out his soul into his words, tears splattering the whit of the page, but he wrote on.

My world was turned, undone, destroyed

Spinning into space

I sat alone, with just my thoughts

And tears my company

How could it happen? Happen to me

This was someone else's nightmare

This was all wrong, how could it be, didn't anybody care?

An accident my father said

I knew that wasn't true

There was something else here and now, an inconvenient truth

And when I asked, confronted, begged

What I dreaded most was true

But In my heart I knew I'd known the shot was planned and done

And even though he's dead and gone

He loved me…this I know

He could hear something at the door, and the next moment, Leonardo was staring at him.

His eyes were red, bloodshot and heavy laden with guilt.

"Leo…?"

"It's time."

And Mikey smiled, a bitter, heavy smile.

"Okay."


So what did you think?
