The Secrets We Hide

I am ninth grader and in my creative writing class, we had to find a poem, come up with three questions about it and have a class discussion. When I went up to have my class discussion at first nobody understood the poem, so the teacher told me to read it again. After I read it the second time people started to get it. they said that the poem meant that we needed to release our secrets and keeping them to ourselves was not good. Many people said that they could relate to this poem and the author did a great job. I really liked this poem and I thought it meant something, so the author did a great job writing this poem.

I am a Senior and for my English class we are finding poems that we like and have to write a personal feeling towards the poem. I think this poem is great for me because I have many struggles in my family and I always avoid talking to people about it because I'm afraid of what they would think. The struggles I go through every day are a big part of my life and by reading this poem, it makes me realize I should let certain people in and not be embarrassed of sharing the truth. If I did that, than maybe I would feel better about everything. I think this poem would be helpful for many people.
Thanks,

I chose this poem because it related perfectly with my theme which was "Releasing secrets will in time set you free from you pain" I really enjoyed reading this poem and I believe other people will also.

Hi I have an English Anthology project and I was looking for a poem and this one caught my eye. I must say the author did an amazing job. I hope everyone in class can learn a thing or two in my class from this.

I am a Freshmen at the Fruita 8/9. I am writing a Rhetorical Analysis Essay on this poem. This has a lot of emotion. This poem really caught my eye and I like it A LOT ! Great job Tiffany.
