Monster

In the face of harsh conditions, we evolve.

A shell protects a fragile heart
Spines keep enemies at bay
Claws strike out in self-defence
Fangs to bare, they gleam for miles

But within the shell we lose the heart
Spines keep even friends away
Claws scratch all held by our hands
And with our fangs we lose our smiles

i think what we all worry about deep inside is that we will evolve into monsters.
