TMNT-Inside
Who am I?
What am I?
I'm the thing that hides under your bed when you sleep. I'm the monster that waits in your closet, watching and waiting for you to come close. I'm the
creature that runs free in your nightmares, following every movement you make.
My baby brother sees me as the emo kid you cuts himself just because it feels good. He likes to poke and prod at me and try to get me angry just for
his amusement. I usually slap him on the head or chase after him because of that. But in the end I'm always there to protect and comfort him. I would
do anything to keep that goof ball safe from our enemies or himself.
My younger brother sees me as the big bully, running around and picking on the smaller and weaker kids. I understand that what I did like tease him
because he's smart, take his books and destroy them cause they're stupid, or just push him around was wrong, but I was young. You do shit when you're
young. But now that we're nearly adults, I can see that all those brains that I used to say were useless, have gotten us out of a lot of bad situations.
My older brother is a pain in my ass. Always lecturing me about how I'm too reckless and hot headed. Well tough luck "fearless leader", it's not my fault
that I was born that way. I mean come on, so I drink a little and I like to beat people to a pulp, it helps me. But I guess he doesn't like to give lectures as
much as I hate getting them. He always there for me, trying to set a good example, always putting up with my shit, and keeping all my secrets safe.
My sensei, my father sees me as a protector. Bearing the weight of the world on my shoulders to protect the ones I care about. Always looking for a
fight, he says is my way of viewing the world. So dark and depressing, shaping who I really am and who I never want to be. He try's his hardest to
understand why I'm always angry, but I never want him to see the truth.
As for me, I see myself as the big guy who has too much on his mind to ever care about someone except those close. But the truth is that I care about
everything that everyone does even if they don't want anyone to care. But with all the pain and suffering in the world I guess the only thing that matters
is that I should just see myself ... as me.
