I am losing heart

Peering into the sea
I imagine that I
Can see my reflection
Just wondering why
I don’t look that well
It seems any more
The sea ice is melting
And I can’t ignore

What feels like hopelessness
Should I be resigned
To fearing the worst
Or staying aligned
The sea ice is melting
The seals seemingly
Are, catching their fish
Far Out to sea

I remember a time
When I was the boss
When I walked about
People did give a toss
But now in what is an inauspicious
Time
My prospects seem bleak
And I can hardly rhyme

Often I lose heart
And just want to dive
As deep as can be
and then not survive
Just sink to the bottom
Abandoned and gone
In the coldest of spots
Where the sun’s Never shone

Mom always said to me
You were my best
Son in all the world
Despite all the rest
I cried my eyes Out
When she passed away
She just gave me a smile
And fell and did lay

Motionless hopefully
I will go soon
Just like my mother
A bit out of tune
Hopeful that someone
Will remember me
My life not my death
I shall just have to see
