Author's Notes: This time around, I'm back with a poem about everyone's favorite turtle in red, Raphael. Here's hoping you guys have another good read.
Disclaimer: I don't own the TMNT franchise.I am seen as the rebellious one, the hothead.
In their eyes, I do every thing wrong.
I am flawed in more ways than one.
I have trained to be a ninja and yet that is not good enough.
I have striven to be just as good as him but I still fall short of his example.
I try to tell them how I really feel but the words never come out.
I try to show them that I'm not a cold hearted monster.
Even if I were a monster, I have a heart and feelings too.
I want to tell them so badly just how much they mean to me.
I want them to know that their worries and concerns are appreciated.
I want them to see with their own eyes that I do love them.
I want them to realize that underneath this rough exterior, lies a torn and broken soul, in desperate need of healing.
I need them to understand that one day, I will be able to return their feelings fully.
I need them to have patience with me for just a little bit longer.
I need them to realize, that I'll never learn my lesson, if I'm constantly being confined and restricted in every possible direction.
I need them to take my feelings into consideration more often.
I need them to try and meet me in the middle.
More importantly, I need them to see that no matter what happens, I will never let go.
