Poem Commentary

Apologizing for our lack of understanding

I Apologize



I know and I feel the pain
that we have brought upon you
For the men that has broken your heart, misused you, abused you and any other hurtful or harmful thing
Let me take their place
to say
I Apologize
for all the things that we have promised
and not delievered
For starting a family with you and then leaving what we started
and having you
being the mother and father of the household
I Apologize
for not being the man you needed as well as
the man you wanted
I Apologize
for calling you out of your name
instead of understanding your emotions and understanding what was really wrong
I Apologize
for being so cold and insensitive
when you just want to show me that you are mine
I Apologize
for not being the leader that I am supposed to be
I Apologize
for forcing you to be in the world working
instead of being at home with the kids
and for all of the things that I forgot
I Apologize

Oh my ..very though provokin' indeed...been there...and feel these words...the message goes where it is intended with an endearin' heart...at times we tend to live where our hearts were pulverized and refuse to see whats ahead...until ...we see it for ourselves...makes one wonder how many have fallen through the cracks of bein' with that special someone...I almost did...Bless you for this...I am sure many women or men might understand where this is comin' from...but it is true before the flowers we must plow some weeds...Beautiful!! YOU'RE ON A ROLL..Blessings ! Namaste...Tierra @}-'-,

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.
