~~THE NIGHT~~

Capable and caring

Sensitive but strong

The life of the young turtle

Couldn't go wrong.

Upright and steadfast

Courageous with might

Who knew the turtle

Would get lost in the night.

Down the path of

Seduction, deceit, and more so

Farther off the path of the good life

Deeper on the road of sorrow and strife.

And when the turtle was

Broken, desolate, and alone

Looking through the bars

At the life he had known.

For the beautiful turtle

Was standing alone

Far from his life, his family, and home.

The spirit of love

Looking out for turtle

From high above.

Spirit opened the cage

By providing the keys

All turtle had to do

Was reach for these.

Be strong young turtle

Do what you must

Before the vicious night

Turns you to dust.

Reject all it offers

Come back to the way

We're waiting dear turtle

Please join us today.

Come back from the night

The hurt and harm

We're waiting dear turtle

With wide-open arms.

The path will be twisted

And hardships abound

With determination as your companion

You'll gain the high ground.

Strike off your demons

Dig deep down inside

And know that the spirit

Has nothing but pride.

Pride for the turtle

Who was lead astray

Because turtle has the courage

To keep the night at bay.


OK SO I LEFT THIS WITHOUT A TURTLE AS THE MAIN POINT SO YOU CAN CHOUSE WHO YOU WANT THIS ONE TO BE ABOUT, HOPE YOU LIKED IT!
