Taking

Take what you take

Take everything I own
Take everything I am
Take what you want
But you will never take me down

Take our photos
Take our memories
Take what you want
But you will never take me down

I cried over you
Wondered what I could do
Go run and flee
But please leave me

I will take what you leave
I will take what you did not want
I will take the rest
But I will never take you

I will take the shards of what was
I will take the breath left behind
I will take the forgotten times
But I will never take you

They say what does not kill you makes you stronger
This time will not differ
I will put my life back together with tape and glue
I will make it through

Take what you take

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.
