He burns an angry red
Hiding the softest of hearts
Behind his hard shell
Turns all his pain into anger
So you never could tell
Sharply in contrast
With his blue headed bro
Who seems too cold to care
Though this is not so
He merely fights with a cool head
While the other fights with a fiery heart
They simmer at each other
Fire and ice making steam
One brother hurt by seeming coldness
The other brother hurt by a fiery lashing tongue
Fighting each other, they are weak
But they are invincible when they unite

Okay! Contest Closing Time!
I'd like to say that I had alot of fun on this one, and it was very cool to find so many TMNT fans out there. As always, it would have been more fun of a HUNDRED people had entered... but still, i was surprised by the number of secret teenage mutant ninja turtle geeks that did come out of the woodwork.
Everyone did a great job anyways, and it was hard to choose the trophy winners. In the end though, i did my best.
Thanks for entering all, and (of course) Kowabunga
p.s... why is there no TMNT group on Allpoetry? *insert sighs of unfulfilled desire* -
oh beautiful...'Fighting each other, they are weak
But they are invincible when they unite' I think your poem is not just applicable to the four well-loved turtles but to us humans as well...very captivating indeed...

Great work on this! You definantly captured the essance of what lies between leo and Raf. I would like to see a little editing done before the contest closing date, line 15 is especially confusing, but as long as you have the corrections done by then, there will be no points taken off.
Once again, really great work, thanks for entering, and best of luck in the contest!

I like everything that makes brothers not fight one another.
