My dreams are undone in the wintry Midwest <br />Freezing on the broken sidewalks of insanity <br />With snowflakes of loneliness and sorrow <br />Falling like scattered poems waiting to be written <br />And later given to a melancholy girl <br />Trying to survive in the heartbreak world. <br /> <br />And in the barroom back alleys of shattered glass <br />I count my loose change of rejection <br />And feel all pitiful and forlorn <br />In the despairing blue night of the exhausted pale moon <br />But I’m still somehow happy in my soul <br />And promise myself to believe in everything.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-m-hopeless-and-happy/
