    IF

    IF YOU EVER FEEL LIKE CRYING
    CALL ME DAY OR NIGHT
    I DON'T PROMISE THAT I CAN MAKE YOU LAUGH
    OR EVEN PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE
    BUT I CAN WIPE AWAY YOUR TEARS

    IF YOU EVER FEEL LIKE YOU WANT TO RUN AWAY
    CALL ME DAY OR NIGHT
    I DON'T PROMISE THAT I CAN MAKE YOU STOP
    OR EVEN SLOW DOWN.
    BUT I CAN RUN WITH YOU.

    IF YOU EVER FEEL LIKE SCREAMING AT THE WORLD'S INJUSTICE
    CALL ME DAY OR NIGHT.
    I DON'T PROMISE THAT I CAN SILENCE YOUR RAGE,
    OR EVEN MAKE YOU QUIET YOUR THOUGHTS.
    BUT I CAN BE THERE FOR YOU, AND ONLY YOU.

    IF YOU EVER FEEL THAT LIFE HAS TOO MANY QUESTIONS
    CALL ME DAY OR NIGHT
    I DON'T PROMISE THAT I HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS.
    OR EVEN UNDERSTAND THE QUESTIONS.
    BUT WE CAN FIGURE OUT THE MYSTERIES TOGETHER.

    IF I EVER IGNORED YOU,
    IF I EVER MADE YOU FEEL BAD,
    OR LESS THAN WHAT YOU TRULY ARE...
    IF I EVER JUDGED YOU,
    OR PUT YOU DOWN,
    I WAS WRONG, AND I AM SORRY
    I AM SORRY I WAS NOT THERE FOR YOU.

    IF I EVER THOUGHT I WAS BIGGER THAN YOU
    IF I EVER THOUGHT I WAS BETTER THAN YOU
    IF I EVER THOUGHT I WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU
    I WAS WRONG, AND I LOVE YOU
    I LOVE YOU, AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT
    I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT NOW.

    KIND WORDS, THANK YOU AGAIN. PUT THESE WORDS DOWN IN YOUR POETRY.

    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.
