Persona Poem Poems | Examples


Please don’t make me leave

It’s ok don’t worry you can stay. 
Please just keep looking at me and don’t leave.
I’m begging you to stay it’s ok just please don’t leave me.

Dear Logan

Everyone knows it’s supposed to be me and you.
But because somebody decided to hurt me through you.
Now I have to go on without you. 
And close my eyes to forget about you so I can survive.

I See Nothing But Green

I can't say I'd do anything
But I'd do a lot
For those crisp green papery babies
Ejected from cash machines
I'd give you a vial of blood
A touch of my hand
A listening ear
A few words of assurance
I'd even give you
My hand for a dance
Let your fingers
Trace my back, my hips
I'd agree to some skimpy attire
Reveal some cleavage
I am no more than flesh and blood
Not above or beyond
From ashes I rise
To ashes I will return


-persona Poem- Husband To Wife

well darlin', all i can say
is we're fallin' behind
far behind
bills are due
and we're broke
broker than broke
we're below broke
we're diggin' a hole
and a big hole
bigger than a grave
a grave more than 100 feet deep
ewe need a way out
a ladder or some steps
we need to save
our money, our bodies
and ourselves
before we collapse
so we can relax
and be at peace
