Let me count the ways.” (Line 1 Sonnet 43) The use of first person, authenticates that both poems are written for a personal response, this however cannot be seen in ‘Romeo and Juliet’ apart from when the characters speak. The use of alliteration in ‘Sonnet 43’, confirms that the poem was written for Browning’s lover. The repetition of “I love thee...” Shows it’s a personal poem for her true love. However, ‘Valentine’ could be interpreted as an open poem to allow the readers to understand the experiences Duffy has faced. The use of “...we are, for as long as we are.” (Line 16 and 17) Shows that Duffy is inviting her readers into the poem to help reflect upon how she feels.
It is this being so tangled in you” (11-12) in the ancient Egyptian love song called “Love of you is mixed deep in my vitals” because the writer also conveys the same message. Overall, both modern and ancient artists exemplify situations of mature love since each need their lover in their lives to feel complete. Immature love is a situation where a person loves the idea of having “love” causing it to be an unrealistic desire. “Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me” (12-13) quoted from Taylor Swift’s song “You Belong with Me”, describes her desperation for her crush by trying to persuade him that she is the one for him.
The young shepherd is so consumed with his emotions that he believes as long as they have each other, that it will be all the couple will ever need.

The shepherd goes on to say, “And we will all the pleasures prove” (2).
Brigid’s priorities change in an instant, as she wants to protect her daughter from the harsh realities of life. It is only in the last scene that she is aware that she’s still wearing her wedding ring and is still seeking comfort from it ”She was twirling it unconsciously, possessively, rolling it back and forth, back and forth, seeking it with an urgency that surprised her.” For what is important to her has changed in a blink of an eye. The Rip is a male protagonist collection of short stories, set with beautiful waters and bombarding
Alfie Rees-Glinos ‘To His Coy Mistress’ ‘To His Coy Mistress’ is a heritage poem from a male’s perspective of loving a woman. The narrator is male and he is trying to persuade the women that he loves her with a deep and utter passion and to prove this he ‘advises her’ to sleep with him. Throughout the poem, strong feelings of the delicacy of virginity and how the male character will continue to love her, no matter what she decides upon. A significant aspect of the poem where strong feelings are presented is when Marvell writes, ‘till the conversion of the Jews’. By this he means that he loves his lover and will always do so, until the days when the Jews convert to Christianity which even today seems extremely unlikely, so therefore his love for her will never die out.
No matter how hard outside forces try to tempt you away, you are finished searching for your true love. You have found it and are holding fast. We are all initially searching for romantic love that will hold fast through a lifetime. Romantic love is defined as love that is unrealistic, fanciful, passionate and fabulous. In "Beginning of the Songs of Delight", Papyrus Harris 500 demonstrates fanciful love through "…apportioned to you is my heart,/ I do for you what it desires,/ when I am in your arms" (lines 1-3).
Women therefore are seen as depending on men and must gain power, independence, transcending with the aid of man (2010). From this observation, De Beauvoir continues to express that a woman’s love is only in reference to the experience of a man. Through this observation De Beauvoir makes it aware that women love men as their entire existence, while for a man, love plays a minor role. Beauvoir suggests the path to “transcendence” in a relationship, is where love becomes inauthentic, rather love needs to be authentic in other ways (2010). Beauvoir’s analysis of love is ultimately the comparison of the two genders.

Alfred Prufrock" depicts a timid middle-aged man going (or thinking) to propose marriage to a lady but hesitating all the way there. illustration of “impersonal theory” The title of the poem “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” has specific relevance to this theory because his sharing of what he knows of this alternate lifestyle is a gift to anyone who reads this poem. He doesn’t love any one person , he loves all, and therefore wants to take them to this other place to enjoy with him. In the beginning of the poem, when Prufrock says Let us go then , you and I , When the evening is spread against the sky Like a patient etherized upon a table ; Let us go , through certain half – deserted street , The muttering retreats .
The progression of love is inevitable and must be accepted. ‘Friendship After Love’ explores the changes and movement of the love she has experienced. Whilst there is always a sense of loss when a relationship ends, there can also be resolution and relief from the expectation that can overwhelm a relationship, “Why are we haunted with a sense of loss?”, “He beckons us to follow, and across/Cool verdant vales we wander free from care”. Whether or not a friendship evolves from a passionate relationship, does not stop the connection which will always remain between two people who have shared an experience of love together. Although the end of a
The combinations of love “A general theory of love,” “The art of loving,” and “A natural history of love,” all touch the aspect of the psychological influence on love. “A general theory of love,” investigates why communication, time spent, and touch of another individual plays a far more important role in relationships. Also, it looks at the natural science of our feelings. In “The art of loving,” Fromm emphasizes that people are looking for love but aren’t getting it. He also talks about how important love is, and states that the problem of human existence is love.
