    A Dozen Times

    A Dozen Times

    Have you tried saying you're sorry?
    I did a dozen times.
    No one heard me because I just said it to myself.
    Pride? Maybe it was. I regret I covered up the fact...
    Fear?  I thought it was better that I lied...
    I made a fool of myself almost a dozen times....
    I thought it was love...
    Maybe I did what I did
    because I believed I had the right
    to avenge the pain inflicted in my heart...
    many a dozen tmes.

    I've been very sorry and will be
    for the rest of my life........
    Let me just keep within the agony
    of not being able to say 'I'm sorry'...
    I admit I'm coward....I lied a dozen times......
    Let me carry the burden in my soul...
    Be punished all my life...
    I hope God will find a way to forgive me...
    If not the persons to whom I lied...many a dozen times.
    Let me now end by saying "I'm sorry" and I really am...
    Many times over ...... many a dozen times.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
