In The Depths of Solitude
A young heart with an old soul
How can there be peace?
How can I be in the depths of solitude
When there are two inside of me?
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast
As those who accept simplicity... -Tupac Amaru Shakur 1971-1996
Persona Poem
Bright lights flash
Cameras roll
My life front and center
On stage
For the world
To see
Digging deep for what they think they know
Upset
Clueless
Lies sound better to thy ear
Than the honest told truth.
That doesn't stop me.
My shiny clothes, diamond iced necklace
Tell a tale of who I am, and where it is I'm going.
This lifestyle I live is no lie.
Neither is all the money stuffed in my pocket
That the many envious folks wished they had
The charm, the popularity I have
But they don't get it,
Probably never will either
The more money, the more problems come
That's why money is the root of all evil
So much of it, many call me the devil himself
I make the money, it don't make me,
Nor does it change me.
I'm going to be me, until the death of me
Because at the drop of a dime,
It can be all taken away.
Does that make the picture clearer?
Let the bright lights flash

NOTORIOUS B.I.G The sky is the limit
Streets of Markets
To the sound of the shop owner's now loudened crows,
As all push through the crowd, for a trinket to show.
To us they call but drowned out hence,
Only few can hear to shop or fence.
"It's cheap," "It's amazing," "A miracle it be,"
They call, they call, they call out to me.
Every store, stall and sunridden shop,
Be not worthy of my topdollar to stop.
I see an end, by the wharf near the sea,
A break from the markets, but a sanctum it not be.
Now I push harder to reach this break of the quay,
As they call, they call, they call out to me.
Now lost I be, to the push of the swarm,
Further collared, like sheep in the sun's warm.
Not a word I understand, but I have figured out why,
I am pushed, someone certainly has caught everyones eye.
Drowned by the yells, a man selling something certainly,
And he calls, he calls, he calls out to me.
From the move of the swarm, the dust now a stir,
Not a thing to see, all lost in the lightest of earth.
Back I try, still clumsily I go,
The swarm too thick, I am caught now more slow.
Then, a break to the claustrophobes enemy,
Now behind me they call, they call out to me.
But I am free,
From the markets in the streets,
Now at the quay,
They call, they call, they call out to me.

Nice poem.
Heh.
Poems don't have to rhyme, nor do they have to follow grammar rules!
