- Prose: The longer, flowing sentences and paragraphs that tell a story, like the description of the sunset and the protagonist's contemplative thoughts about the day ahead.
2. Poem 2:
- Verse: The rhythmic structure and repetition of phrases, like "heart pounding, feet pounding" and "breath in, breath out."
- Prose: The more narrative style and conversational tone, as the speaker reflects on their journey and the challenges they face.
3. Poem 3:
- Verse: The use of metaphor and symbolism, such as "dancing on the edge of darkness" and "light breaking through the clouds."
- Prose: The longer, descriptive passages that explore the speaker's emotions and experiences in a more prose-like format.
