Poem Commentary

These days that go by...

The days have gone by,
I've done my best to keep my head high.
Walking as if nothing were wrong,
trying daily to keep strong.
Without the warmth I felt before,
I will love you nevermore.
I lay alone in this bed,
Thinking, wishing, I were dead.
But the days go on without regret,
without doubting, but with stress.
Holding my head high is hard to do,
when all I want is to keep loving you.
When seeing is believing and Ive seen enough,
that when these days finally get less tough.

My heart said I couldn't,
my mind said I shouldn't.
But things could have been,
should have been,

Wow this poem was awesome i would like to see this one published. i might even add it to my favorites. Cherise you truly are a beautiful poet.

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.
