Thread: My poetry/rap

Hey guys, I gotta write a poem for my HS english 2 class and while I've been interested in poetry and rap for a while now, I've hit a sort of writers block. So any poems or rappers that write something real (If I see Soulja Boi on here ima kill y'all haha) would be greatly appreciated and any tips on how to improve my freestyling and or writing? thanks guys btw I especially liked "Something Real" by Elis D. that was a great poem and I would love his input as well as Oneironaut and anybody else with skills or even a minor interest. Thanks a lot guys, Much love

Heres some of the stuff I wrote:
Illusions
Part 1
Does she like me?
the girl sittin by that tree
thinkin of somethin so free
not a care in the world
like a beautiful pearl
released from her shell
to show me the hell
that is life without her smell
she would be mine
we could walk through time
we could talk
wine and dine
all night long
the renaissance man in a suit
to boot
the declaration
of the quintessential
dimensional, rift that divides
me and her, layers of plugs
stopping my world from leaking into her flower buds
and emerging from the field
with a stronger yield
and a better understanding
of what makes her heart where my love is landing.

Part 2:
See the sun with me
I wanna run with thee
you got my heart poundin
like a speaker bumpin
can't let go of this feelin I got
Assumed I could kill it with all my thoughts
but it can't be bought
I had to embrace it, see you
hear you and be near you
Say yes and I rule the nest
Say no and I tried my best
gimme a chance though
and you'll see me go
fly to the sky
higher than the ceiling of the stars
with my lyrical bars
whack as they may be
or better if they can be
never as good as you and me
the content of this message
may never be received
so the pressures gonna be relieved
through rhyme
the universal language of time
using poetry to survive
the mental minefield that is your mind
oh how I'd love to be those mines

Part 3:
Sense of time slows
when I feel the soft glow
of your warm smile
washin away the bile
that day produced
and that she reduced
to almost nothing but a sore memory
inspirin me to write this poetry
and take the time
to speak my mind
and write this rhyme
let my word
be heard
throughout the world
for every boy and girl



Yea I did that in bout 30 min but I got a lil block and cant think of too many more topics
