O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN! ~BY WALT WHITMAN
Our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
Our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The daily anticipation,
The ever-lingering hope,
The hope of meeting him,
Like a child, yearning a mother’s embrace,
Waiting for just that moment,
Alas!! It was just a demon.
