"Alone" by Edgar Allan Poe
1. The title "Alone" perfectly represents the tone and themes of the poem.
2. The tone of this poem is depressing and lonely.
3. My mood was the same as that of the poem.
4. There is a shift in technique but not really in theme. The first half of the poem details how the narrator since childhood has felt different from other people. The second half uses metaphors to represent his feelings.
5. The main themes of this poem are loneliness, being an outcast, and depression.
Here he express his difference compared to other people and how it has left him lonely.
"From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I loved, I loved alone."
