Defeated...

Feeling defeat in my bones
all over and all through
in every which way -
in love, in relationships
at work and with friends.
Yet it's not bad
to feel defeated.
I am slowly sinking
to the bottom of my being
visiting every bruise
and every scar
and touching that
rock bottom -
Aha....
that's hard and has
taken many a blow
and many beatings
and yet hasn't given up
it's still solid
and strong
and tells me to rise up
yet again
saying, how does it
matter - a defeat here
and a defeat there?
Life is to live on
and not give up.
