Alone Poem by Edgar Allan Poe

Alone

Rating: 4.4


From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw; I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
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.
Then- in my childhood, in the dawn
Of a most stormy life- was drawn
From every depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still:
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain,
From the sun that round me rolled
In its autumn tint of gold,
From the lightning in the sky
As it passed me flying by,
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.

I know the world that Poe was trapped in. Unlike Poe I found a way out of the darkness of futility. I saw the light that put my demons to flight, Poe seems to have been content with the dark world of emotion.

Edgar Allan Poe has witnessed death throughout his lifetime and this poem immensely reflects that.
