Poet 2 Poet

An ivory smile and eyes that GLOWED His penetrating words reached my SOUL A prophet, a poet but human all the SAME So young and burdened with too much GAME His work was an outlet to relieve the PAIN The trials of his life overwhelmed his BRAIN I saw the pain I suffered reflected in his EYES I heard the words I felt come from his throat and RISE Blessed with the knowledge that shoulda set us FREE But the devil intervened so it could not BE I know what it’s like, a side all bull **** Not all good or bad causes inner CONFLICT All these things I say hoping it’s not too LATE To reach those others who I know can RELATE And touch their souls like he came and touched MINE Unlike your demise yo words came right on TIME We miss u TUPAC Written & copyrighted by Tone Jaxson
