I want to give up,
But, something is holding me back.

I want to give up,
and leave you with your troubles.

I want to fade from existance
like one of the shadows.

There are so many things
that I want to do.

Yet...

Why can't I bring myself to do them?
Could it be that you're my brother?
Or that I care about you?

Maybe I'm just too stubborn to give up.

That honor won't allow it.

Well...whatever the reason...

One thing's for sure...

Whether we like it or not, we're stuck with each other.

And I'll never let you take the fall.


Not exactly the best poem I've written, but, I wrote this when I was in a bad mood and I needed to get myself out of it. It's kinda like a silent conversation between Leo and Raph.

Let me know what you think.
