Turtles...

A simple glitch...
Can cut me open so deep...
I wonder if it's realization...
or is it actualization...

I am writing once more...
hopefully pouring out everything to the core...
The heart's feeling sore...
As though it has been washed a shore...
Wasted like an ore...
Becoming so raw...


I feel like a new born turtle...
Struggling to swim out to the open sea...
Only to be washed back by the trashing waves...
There are predators all around...
Waiting for an opportunity to take you down...
And your shell will not help you out...
Because it is still as soft as hell...

BUT....

When they survive all obstacles in life...
They live the safest and longest life in line...
I want to be like them...
I will be like them...
This is not the end...
