This poem breaks my heart. The writer brings so much emotion
into it and I feel like he is sitting right in front of me expressing his
feelings to me. In the very first sentence the writer states “Tonight I can
write the saddest lines.”(p321) Here he is informing me that he could not
previously do this. I later learn that he is so sorrowful because a previous
relationship has come to an end. He
keeps repeating the line “tonight I can write the saddest lines.” I feel like
the writer keeps stating this because he is struggling to forget about his lost
love. Through this poem he still
struggles to forget her and he still wants to be with her. He tries to find her
but he notes “She is not with me.” This
poem in general has become a painful task of forgetting. In the end the speaker
is determined to erase her from his mind and that this poem will be “the last
verses that I writer for her.” I feel like he conquered his broken heart by the
end of the poem.
