Poem Commentary

This is about a rough patch in my life that I have learned from.

None of Us are Perfect

I know I'm not perfect,
Infact far from it,
No one knows the secrets I with hold.

But as I hold these secrets back they hurt me more
These thoughts run through my head
Day and night, Night and day.
I want these thoughts to go away.

The thought of ending my life,
Thinking there is no need for me to be here.
The thoughts of how everyone would act if I was gone.

I moved away from everything I knew I didn't want to be here anymore.
I went through a rough time and couldn't deal with my self anymore.
I ruined my brothers' and sisters' lives.
I ruined everything in my life.

I was a young teenager I didnt know how to handle my extreme depression.
I thought the only way out was to die.
I now learned that I was wrong and that would of been a great big mistake.

For I have an amazing family,
Friends that are always there for me,
I feel like I have a pretty great life,
Every life has its ups and downs.

If you just push through it,
Something great will come out of it,
I wish I never would of had these thoughts.

They haunt me at night and make me think I'm a horrible person.
As you read this I hope and pray you wont ever think like I did.
If you do just think about your life and your plans for the future.
And get pass it call up a friend and just talk about everything.

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.
