Revealing what I want...

“Revealing what I want...”

“Sitting alone, hiding away,
My protector, my sanctuary,
Yearning to be out there,
But what holds me...’

“Am I ashamed of what I’ve done?
Keeping myself from others?
Revealing what I want...
Lying in my shell, hurt, though hurting?
Do I deny it? Do I not? It riddles me so.”

We watch the tortoise as children,
Waiting for it to appear from its home.
Standing high above it, losing patience,
While we regret time lost.

One child stayed behind, crouching over the tortoise.
Looking back at the others who were tripped by the creature.
The child looks through the reptile’s shell, knowing his secrets.
Hurt also by the tortoise, for not knowing who he was,
Hidden within his shell
