    Poem Commentary

    I wrote this poem my senior year of high school. It was a time of deep conflict for me. I was in a very tumultuous relationship with a boy & my relationship with my parents was strained. It was a time of deep conflict for me. I had my boyfriend pulling me in one direction & my parents pulling me in another. I felt like I had no voice & no choice.

    This Life I Live....

      

    Sometimes I wonder...
    Why do I exist?
    But this life I live...
    I can not resist.

    At times...
    I am content.
    But this life I live...
    I resent.

    At times...
    I get mad.
    But this life I live...
    I must have.

    At times...
    I am depressed.
    But this life I live...
    I will repress.

    At times...
    I feel hate.
    But this life I live...
    I am made to take.

    At times...
    I am lonely.
    But this life I live...
    Is my only.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
