    Hidden Pearls Shine the Brightest

     I lost my talent
    When you left with my spark,
    No regrets left to shed
    When I cried in the dark. 
    I thought life would get easier
    Now that I'm King,
    But my imagination withers;
    Not a song left to sing. 
    I'm happy as a clam,
    As the saying goes,
    But what the mind refuses to acknowledge,
    The Heart surely knows.


    Pain overrides senses
    When I see your smile
    Of that Little Boy
    I loved for a while.
    Everything fades,
    And you obviously knew that.
    While my pride falters,
    My envy grows forever fat. 
    I'm happy as a clam,
    The saying may gloat,
    But I'm having a hard time
    Keeping this ship afloat.  


    Sometimes I feel like I'm
    Drowning in life,
    With each passing wind
    Comes heart-clenching strife. 
    I hold onto fear
    Like some hold onto love.
    When I lose myself,
    I fly free as a dove. 
    I'm happy as a clam
    And this time it really is true. 
    I've been the happiest being
    Since I got rid of you.

    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.
