Love is such a beautiful emotion that can make a lonely person happy, fade away all the pain in life and make every individual to feel wonderful again, but once love is gone hurts like hell. Devotion is a sweet journey, romantic bond with sprinkling hearts, which requires both partners to expose their true selves and imperfections. In the song “Don’t You Remember” by Adele, employs hyperbole, coupled, caesura and anaphora to illustrate the emotional break down a person goes through hence, the author emphasises past relationships that have ended in bitterness and bad perceptions of ex boyfriends which

Falling in devotion is a blind trust not sure what will happen in the end. A healthy affair does not obligate the other partner to feel like they need attention to feel needed. Once the affection for another individuals is grown it can never be taken away.
Adele’s emphasis on this song presents a setting which is heartbroken, hopeless, and sorrow. In the previous relationship with ex-boyfriends, felt disloyal, had struggles in emotional connection with boyfriend 's which have inspired most of the music. During an interview, Adele mentioned, “Most of her relationships has ended in bitterness and negative perception of her lovers”. Adele battled to come out of the bitter situation after breaking up with someone who is really important to her and felt disgusted, ashamed to write lyrics regarding them. The author infuses hyperbole in (Stanza 7, verse 1, 2) which evokes an emotion of what she had done to fix the broken connection between them: “Gave you space so you could breathe, I kept my distance so you could be free”. These verses tell the audience that even though they were on a different path in the relation, but still gave him space to think regarding the missing piece in their affection and kept distance to let him do his business without pressuring him. Using reader-response analogy, as an audience of this song I can also relate to how it feels when someone neglect affection and leaves giving any explanation. It was uncomfortable to
On the contrary, Adele viewed motherhood and being a wife as the single handedly most important role in a woman’s life. When Edna was distressed she wanted to do something to fix the problem where on the other hand Adele would simply use the piano to sooth her soul and relax herself in order to overcome the anger that is at that time bypassing her.
“From the Intimate Lyrics,” shows a woman crying, but her tears are words from a book. This represents what happened to Montag when he began to read the books and look into the subjects of happiness versus unhappiness. The books open up a door to a realm of feeling and thought for Montag. The woman in Furtado’s piece of art, is crying because of something she read. She too, is feeling from this new realm of words. Both works push through the idea that books show a different world to the reader. To both the woman and Montag, it showed them that what they thought was truth and happiness, wasn’t. Montag loses his wife and job to trying to find happiness, chance society, and protect the books. The woman loses her happiness over what was read to her, hence her crying. From Montag’s journey and the meaning behind “The Intimate Lyrics,” a reader could gather, that books and words written or said can indeed reveal their deepest
The poem’s structure as a sonnet allows the speaker’s feelings of distrust and heartache to gradually manifest themselves as the poem’s plot progresses. Each quatrain develops and intensifies the speaker’s misery, giving the reader a deeper insight into his convoluted emotions. In the first quatrain, the speaker advises his former partner to not be surprised when she “see[s] him holding [his] louring head so low” (2). His refusal to look at her not only highlights his unhappiness but also establishes the gloomy tone of the poem. The speaker then uses the second and third quatrains to justify his remoteness; he explains how he feels betrayed by her and reveals how his distrust has led him
Incidentally the song can also relate to the physical and mental abuses that the characters have endured. To illustrate, “You don’t know the half of the abuse”. On the subject of abuse, it has been noted that in the book,
The artist wants the audience to feel his substantial affection for Delilah, and how it is unchanging even though they are separated by distance. He appeals to the audience’s emotions of admiration, compassion, and longing for another person. The artist does this by singing about his extensive love for Delilah, which may lead people to think of someone they themselves care deeply about, or an example of love in their life.
Edna St. Vincent Millay’s “Sonnet IV” follows many of the conventions of the traditional Petrarchan sonnet. It follows the traditional rhyming scheme and octet, sestet structure. However it challenges the conventions of the typical subject of the Italian sonnet, unrequited love. In the octet at the beginning of the poem Millay uses images that give a sense of transience and in the ending sestet of the sonnet she contrasts the sense of impermanence given earlier with the idea that the speaker cannot forget the smiles and words of their ex-lover. This contrast between permanence and transience illustrates Millay’s interest in a fugacious relationship with everlasting memories. After further analysis of Millay’s highly structured rhyming scheme which puts emphasis on the last words of each line. She uses these words to further express her interest in exploring impermanent relationships by using words that are associated with an end or death.
Yet, on this occasion, they are to promote a message of total desolation following the departure of a companion in “eros”, or romantic desire. Since their exodus from the relationship, the persona’s lover has left an “emptiness [that] has hurt/ all thought” - which is a remarkable oxymoron that uncovers the powerful ability of the vacuum caused by someone’s absence cause such pain to another. Here, it is the absence of the “quiet sound” of the partner’s “flower tender voice”. Heaney effectively conveys the persona’s inability to love life whilst the person whom they love does not love them, which creates a sense of depression for the reader and is an idea which they might feel compelled to contend
To start off, the first stanza in her song represents a sense of how unavoidable change is and how the confusion of the bond combined with the stress of the blame game can lead to a doomed
Bruno Mars released his second official single “When I Was Your Man,” to mainstream radio stations on January 15th, 2013. The song featured an emotional piano ballad with lyrics describing the heartbreak and regrets that Bruno Mars felt for letting his love get away. As the song progress, he expresses hope that her new man will give her all the love and attention that he failed to give her. The reason that I decided to choose this song for my final paper is that I believe the lyrics has true meaning and values, describing how I have felt with most of my unscrupulous relationships in the past.
The third and fourth stanzas offer the poems greatest paradoxes. The author speaks of the lovers being "At this unique distance from isolation" which is to say they are in the one place where they can truly be themselves, in their natural habitat, doing that which is only natural to human instinct. Despite these circumstances, however, the two are at a loss: "It becomes still more difficult to find / Words at once true and kind, / Or not untrue and not unkind." It is through this final stanza that the author conveys the ultimate paradox of human relationships: Relationships are not built upon true love for one another; rather they are built upon the absence of hatred.
When people fall in love, all kinds of emotions become aroused up. In this hurtful song “Almost lover” by A Fine Frenzy, the author tried to express her sadness and painful feeling. The song is about a romance that never formed as she wished. She felt the man cares about her in a romantic way, but actually the man may have thought of her only as a friend. This song brings a lot of memories and images to the readers who have been in a relationship like this.
Before the death of the poem’s protagonist, she tells her lover, “Better by far you should forget and smile, Than that you should remember and be sad.” Rossetti uses parallelism to signify the woman’s compassionate attitude towards the male counterpart of the relationship. Even though she is going to leave him, she does not want him to reminisce the depressed feelings of her death. Instead she hopes that the man can move on from her and live a happy life even without her presence. Rossetti also uses an enjambment in the two lines to amplify the woman’s continuous love for the man, thus stating that her love for him will never decline even after her death. Based on the depiction of the woman’s considerate manners to her lover, ‘Remember’ can be seen presenting romantic love in a positive
This emphasises that she loved him and tried to enjoy every moment with his son. This sentence is very light and gentle, just like a memory. However in the next sentence the speaker uses a word ‘betrays me back’ which suggest that he does not want to remember the past at that certain moment, however the wave-like nostalgia, which was summoned by the sounds of piano, drowns him in the memories of his past which we can see in the lines,
Bruno Mars, in his song “Grenade” reminds of us the power and joy it gives, but also of the pain it can cause and how we should embrace it and shouldn’t waste it. As he talks about what he gives and what he does for his “true love”, the listener is reminded of what love can do from pulling a piano up hill for miles to impress his love to committing suicide from a broken heart [Complex Sentence]. Bruno shows that love is a force that can influence who you are and what you do and cannot
Analyzing the word, "beautiful" in this stanza, one should perceive that she is not actually singing about the outside of her, but what she consists of emotionally and mentally on the inside. She reveals that her thoughts and emotions are of worth and value and they are of her opinion. They are consumed through her, and no one else and if anyone disagrees, she does not take that into affect. Her diction is actually pretty precise. To quote a famous cliché, beauty is not skin deep. She explains that the beauty is the sentiment.
