    Alone
    Definitely one of my fav.




    Edgar Allan Poe
    (1830)


    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.

    And another one:


    A DREAM WITHIN A DREAM


    Take this kiss upon the brow!
    And, in parting from you now,
    Thus much let me avow-
    You are not wrong, who deem
    That my days have been a dream;
    Yet if hope has flown away
    In a night, or in a day,
    In a vision, or in none,
    Is it therefore the less gone?
    All that we see or seem
    Is but a dream within a dream.

    I stand amid the roar
    Of a surf-tormented shore,
    And I hold within my hand
    Grains of the golden sand-
    How few! yet how they creep
    Through my fingers to the deep,
    While I weep- while I weep!
    O God! can I not grasp
    Them with a tighter clasp?
    O God! can I not save
    One from the pitiless wave?
    Is all that we see or seem
    But a dream within a dream?

    Good Choice
    Alone is one of my favorite poems by Poe. It has an elegance and a sense of sophistication while still accommodating a feeling of utter retreat and despair. It adds with it a sense of hope and longing combined with sorrow, this poem is poetic art in its truest form overall good choice of topic.

    Another Good Choice
    A dream within a dream is once again one of my favorites because of its higher levels of symbolism that seems to have been stripped away from modern poetry. this poem takes its readers back to when not anyone could write a poem it had to be someone who could see beauty in darkness or show darkness in light or simply have a grasp on the essence of the human soul, overall a good poem for its sheer awe inspiring symbolism.

    i used to find myself in the first 8 lines. " and all i loved, i loved alone"
    had no friendz... not a family guy... what i liked seemed to bother everyone else so i really had to keep it for me, u know?

    i like this poem very much.

    I am sorry for that, lord.
    We all find ourselves in so many poetries. Believe it, I find myself best in "All I loved, I loved alone" precisely.

    Me too, I have to admit...

    I think in many situations Eddy just talked from our hearts.
