She liked her shell better
It smelled like chocolate and
Butter
It was her comfort
She couldn't hurt,
She couldn't love
She preferred the subtle feel,
To the harsh realities
She wanted to be seen only in
Her shell
She wouldn't feel the heat
There
It was her best friend,
Her shield
Nothing could ever go wrong
Or so she thought.....
Now she's faced with options
She could share her shell with
Him,
Or step out without shades....
