~*Leonardo*~

Sitting here again, looking at my family and friends.

How can they have so much fun, when I just failed them again.

Don't they see how much they mean to me, I don't deserve to be their leader.

I don't even deserve to be their brother.

They have forgiven me, but I don't forgive myself.

I failed them, that's all I can say.

I shouldn't have lived today.

Raph almost died saving my butt, how can I forgive myself after that?.

I might go and train, but what's the point.

It's not like I'm any good.

Right now Raph's looking at me, It's not like he cares.

I need to get some air, I need to get out.

Before I go I should go to my room, to get my Katanas.

What's this on my pillow, it's from Raph, I pick it up and read it in bliss.

~*Raphs note to Leo*~

"Hey Leo, I noticed your were a little down.

So I thought I would wright you a note.

I know you think you failed us today, I want you to know that it's not true.

If anything I failed you, I should of listed to your orders in battle.

Maybe you wouldn't be felling like this right now.

I know in the past, we had a bond that felt like it would last.

We used to be so close, I don't know what happend to that.

I guess I pushed you away, to this day it's something I regret.

I'm sorry, I'm not really that great at writing these things.

I'm just trying to cheer you up, but I guess that's not my luck.

Please big bro, just don't give up.

It's not your fault we don't listen, How about this.

If you cheer up, I'll try to be more fun?.

Aww dang I ain"t good at writing this stuf, Maybe I should just give up.

You might be thinking, Oh no don't do that.

But why shouldn't I, that's what you'r doing.

Can't I be like you?.

~*Leo*~

Wow I didn't think Raph could be like this, That's somthing I missed.

I shouldn't be treating them like this, I am good enough.

Why did I feel down, I'm getting rid of this frown.

I feel a smile coming on, I feel better now.

I'm in the living room, there's Raph now.

I think he can tell how I feel, my smile seems real.

I'm going up to him for a hug.

Man don't you just love that thing called.

brotherly love.
