What does the poem If there be sorrow by Mari Evans mean and analysis?

In: Poetry [Edit categories]

Answer:

If you must feel sadness or regrets, let it be for things that you have not done. Feel sorrow because you didn't dream bigger, things you didn't realize you could have, things that you didn't get for yourself. At the end he means the most important kind of sorrow to the poet, is love that is kept away, love that is forced to be hidden.
