Poem Commentary

I wrote this when I thought my husband and I were on the verge of divorce. We made it through. Been married 20 years now. 

When

When I needed a friend, you were always there.
I cried on your shoulder, and I knew you cared.
As time went by, our friendship grew strong,
I knew in my heart, it could not go wrong.

When I needed a lover, you were always there.
Holding me in your arms, should I love you, should I dare?
Then as time went by, our love grew strong,
I knew in my heart, it could never be wrong.

When I needed a husband, you were always there.
We became as one, we were a pair.
And as time went by, our marriage grew strong,
I knew in my heart, in your arms, is where I belong.

When our love died, you were no longer there.
I lost all that I had, it was to much to bare.
Now, as time goes by, my heart cries and it bleeds.
I still feel you in my soul, you're still all that I need.

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.
