This poem delves into the intricate depths of the speaker’s inner turmoil and existential journey, using vivid imagery and poignant symbolism to convey their emotional landscape.
The opening line, “Has long as my pride forever exists,” sets the tone for a contemplation on the enduring nature of pride and its implications for the speaker’s identity.
