"Then it comes to me: Yes I’ll die, / so will everyone, so has everyone. It’s what we have in common. / And for a moment, the sorrow ceased, and I saw that it hadn’t been sorrow after all, / but loneliness, and for a few moments, it was gone."

Hmmm. The poems starting after “Christmas Day” started to move me. Also, there is one poem giving the book a cohesive feel. I would look at that if you aren’t sure. I’m still not, really.
