    I Am...

    I am a poet writing of my pain.
    I am a person living a life of shame.
    I am the girl who really does love you.
    I am the one saying "If only he knew"
    I am your daughter hiding my depression.
    I am your sister making a "good" impression.
    I am your friend acting like im fine.
    I am a wisher wishing this life weren't mine.
    I am a student who doesn't have a clue.
    I am the girl sitting next to you.
    I am the one asking you to care.
    I am your best friend hoping you'll be there.
    I am a girl who thinks of suicide.
    I am a teenager pushing her tears aside.
    I am a person who you don't understand.
    I am a person who sometimes hates living on this land.
    I am the girl who likse you more than you know.
    I am the girl whos feelings she can't show.
    I am a dreamer, dreaming of a better life.
    I am someone holding a sharp knife.

    I always wondered if the rights to acceptance must always involve pain. Life seems to be a constant fight for anything worthwile. Anything worth having you seem to have to guard with immense strength. I like this honest pour. I too feel as if life simply adopted me into a family that I didn't get to know. Hopefully this poetic cry was relieving.

    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.
