Up by Margaret Atwood
I picked this poem for the fact that I was able to see myself in it. I read this poem not so much for the last lines because I don't find myself feeling like I have to forgive someone, but because I understand the feeling of not wanting to get out of bed, for whatever reason. I sometimes feel that I would like to stay in bed with the doors shut and just be with myself for the day. I have had the feeling of not wanting to get out of bed because of the knowledge of what the day was going to bring. I think that the person in this poem didn't want to face what the day was to bring and tried to overcome this in their own way.
