Similarities To a Famous Poet
I make my own decisions for I’m my own boss,
choose the wrong concourse and now I’m loss.
I have to change my path like Robert Frost,
catch my life for a touchdown like Randy Moss.
This is my life and I got to control it, having similarities to a famous poet.
As I slough in the corner of my room with my head down low,
full of sorrow because I lost the one I call my bro.
Reminiscing about the past got me feeling like Edgar A. Poe,
tormented by the pain felt from a love one you can’t let go.
This is my life and I got to control it, having similarities to a famous poet.
Life is full of many things and troubling lies,
that make people ashamed, and burst into trouble cries.
This got me feeling like Maya Angelou, with all her words of the wise,
you can say what you want, but still I raise.
This is my life and I got to control it, having similarities to a famous poet
