    Poem Commentary

    This poem is about me and how I should have loved myself more.

    Have you seen this child

     Have you seen this child
    He has been missing for awhile
    Some say he ran away
    Some say he drowned
    I say he is lost within the crowd 

    Regretting his decisions and the choices he has made
    Reliving the same night day after day
    He told me in his anger how frustrated he was
    How nobody loved him or gave him a hug
    But I shrugged it off and thought he was crazy
    Thought he was not man enough and couldn't take it

    I Should have seen the warning signs
    Maybe I could have saved him
    Now he is gone and I just can't take it
    If you have seen this child 
    Tell him that I am sorry
    I should have been there for him

    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.
