Turtle eltruT

Hiding in the form of a shell.

Trying to totally destroy my own personal hell.

Moving so slowly as I walk.

Hoping someone can understand the way i talk.

People looking at me like I'm a cute pet animal.

As the group of friends i hang with drink their fruit danimals.

As i crawl back to the cold breezing sea.

The love is not here yet hopefully its meant to be.

As i grow old and my shell gets soft.

I see here with me living in our loft.

So I'm still trying to conquer my hell.

Waiting for someone to remove my shell.

other than lines 5 and 6 i really liked this one as well those two lines have a different mood/feeling to them compared to the rest of the poem.
