Help me!!

[Mattman6]

Hey guys I need some help analyzing a poem, any help is welcomed

Hap by Thomas Hardy

IF but some vengeful god would call to me
From up the sky, and laugh: "Thou suffering thing,
Know that thy sorrow is my ecstasy,
That thy love's loss is my hate's profiting!"

Then would I bear, and clench myself, and die,
Steeled by the sense of ire unmerited;
Half-eased, too, that a Powerfuller than I
Had willed and meted me the tears I shed.

But not so. How arrives it joy lies slain,
And why unblooms the best hope ever sown?
--Crass Casualty obstructs the sun and rain,
And dicing Time for gladness casts a moan....
These purblind Doomsters had as readily strown
Blisses about my pilgrimage as pain.

anyone want to take a stab at it

he is saying hope in life is not worth happening "read about unbloom flower" its better not to have love and lost its better not to try and to keep your expectation low.

in the end it says life is a journy with a whole bunch of pain
