Withers

measurement, not numbers, not money, not anything. I have realized what we as humans are capable of, but there is still one thing we don 't understand. Everything can be bought, but time itself, cannot be bought back. I watched day by day, as my life withers by, thinking of what I could do, instead of what I have to do now, to pursue my goals in this life.

When I think of the sentence where Tupac says in his poem “In the Depths of Solitude” “I exists in the depths of solitude / pondering my true goal” (1-2). I see it as him saying he is alone and, having to find what his purpose in life is. When we get time to think to ourselves we see things in a different light that we might not have seen with others around us. Tupac was a very successful rapper he in my opinion probably only got a couple of minutes alone. However like many others that are…
