We All Must Face The Defeat Of Our Souls Poem by Uriah Hamilton

We All Must Face The Defeat Of Our Souls



My ship has been tossed
Helplessly on its side upon the shore.

Even beneath beautiful blue skies,
My heart is sunk and my eyes
Just float in a sea of tears.

No Sunday walks in flowery parks
Or beer toasts in friendly bars
Will find me now.

The only songs I have to sing
Are desolate dirges
To the desperate moon.

My thoughts of love
And romantic sway of words
Sadly give way
To all the loneliness inescapable.

Beautifully sad, but the soul of the poet is never truly defeated. So long as loneliness can sing. Take care, Sandra
