The Rivalry
 
this is a free verse poem i did for english class...hope u like it

The Rivalry

By ~High-Dro~


Is it my city?

Or yours?

Fights over turf,

Scraps because of money,

Reputations to protect,

Everyone has to be so tough.


Chaos spreads because of one simple sound,

Innocent bystanders flee from fear of the bullets.

Lives hang in the balance.

Hot lead penetrates skin.

Victims are scarred for life.

Mentally and physically.


Houses become broken homes,

Rooms become vacant.

They match the empty hearts.

The silence is so un-nerving.

Tears roll down flushed cheeks.

The family is torn apart.


These are the streets.

This is the struggle.

Gang warfare is a killer.

It’s red versus blue.

It’s Bloods versus Crips.

This is The Rivalry.
