That is okay, so there was once upon a time a girl.
She was a very pretty girl, beautiful even and didn't know her own strength or weakness. One day she met a boy, see she'd had something to fill in her life. An empty spot of sorts a place she could entrust to anyone and so she felt she wasn't enough for anyone. She was tall and blessed by man gifts, whether they were for others to bare witness to or not was for her to choose.
She never felt like she was enough, but something went wrong when she met the boy.
It wasn't the kind of eye's or gaze that she'd been used to. She was used to be seen as something, she had always been something, always people knew her and she soon realized that no one really did. The boys eyes weren't exactly like other people's, you could see the desire in other people's. You could see them reaching for a brass ring, they wanted something, always wanted something from her.
It wasn't like living a life, it was like being a hermit crab. In a shell just big enough for two. See the boy didn't know she was a hermit crab though, he saw something entirely different. A friend, he'd wandered along the coast line for quiet a while and every so often he'd seen things or talked to animals. He always got strange looks and felt out of place.
The girl you see was the most beautiful hermit crab of all, she was prettier then the night skies and bottomless oceans. So she always got attention from the world around her, she didn't mind though.
Right until she saw the boy, he didn't know it and while friendly and fun there was something amiss. See he was a hermit crab too, but he didn't have a shell, when they met they realized something. They told each other stories and laughed. You see the boy didn't judge her based on things he didn't know. The world had taught him that no matter what he was out of place. When he told this story to the girl she said. Well of course silly with a smile on her face, your a crab with out a shell. There's room in this one for two.
The boy looked at her with questioning pondering eyes.
You'd let me share your shell with you?
Of course she said
It gets awful lonely when you've room for two.
So they shared, the girl crab wasn't sought after as she was once and the boy crab finally fit in because he too had a place in the world. Neither were lonely again, and both were enough for each other.
Two headed hermit crabs though?
