Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) presents the ideas of a single point of view within an ending relationship through a rhapsody that could be seen as bohemian, in the sense that it enclosed into this one person's point of view. This limitation to a single point of view, seen in lines as "And you no longer look with love on me", perfectly demonstrates love as this feeling controlled completely by one's emotion, which is the limiting factor to someone's single point of view. The speaker does not know the reasons someone may have to end their relationship, and it not always is about being negative towards their partner, but it cannot be seen by someone with so much grief in their heart. The repetition of "pity me not" demonstrates the feeling of wanting attention through appearing as if you do not. It also shows the lack of thought that someone may have while going through the end of a seemingly loving relationship. It shows how the emotions take over and leaves you with no critical thought. This poem is ultimately about expressing the lack of reason and surplus of emotion in someone's mind through a hard moment like this one.

In the poem "Pity Me Not" by Edna Millay the author expresses the effect of what her break up did to her and that the event has caused the speaker. She expresses confusion on her initially stating “Pity me not” then near the end she changes this phrase to “Pity me”. This effect of contrasting phrases creates an argument about love being confusing and irrational because she can't decide if she wants to be pitied or not. She also states “Pity me not for the beauties passed away”. This example of symbolism is putting a deathly effect on love and she is relating the two maybe saying that they both have an ending, this could mean that she is stating that love doesn't last and has an ending.

In the poem Sonnet 29 by Edna Millay it’s revealed a broken heart and it’s emotions after a devastating break up that saw the speaker reveal its true feelings about love and it’s problems

The author portrays the speaker as someone seeking for attention and urging for someone to be by their side, this is done by using the repetition in the sentence “pity me not” in the beginning of each verse, the contradiction proclaimed by the speaker when explaining that she doesn’t want others to feel compassion but she actually thrives for it, shows the type of person she is and how maybe her personality had something to do with the break up. This is because people that use contradictions of what they actually want, have an unbearable personality that not always are seeking for attention but also pretend to be strong when they are actually weak. This is done by Millay to reveal to the readers the type of person she is as it’s a personality a lot of people can relate to when thinking of its surrounding or themselves.

One of the ways the poet powerfully presents an idea of love is the long-lasting pain love can leave on someone in the last two lines. The first of these describes how the heart or in a more literal sense someone's self is slow to learn new emotions and slow to deal with them, but how the mind on the contrary is very fast to learn. These two lines contrast each other by conveying to the reader that even though the speaker's mind has already learned to deal with the loss of love their heart is still scarred by it and still longs to have it back. Furthermore, these lines both use the same rhyme scheme further linking them together and creating a sense of continuity between them. So in a petersonian sense, Edna Millay conveys the harsh reality of love that is when it ends it's not something one can just get over and but it will linger in one's heart for a long time and can take a long time to heal from.

The poem is a breakup letter, as if the author wanted her boyfriend to see but at the same time not want to see, using a sort of sorry letter, but seems as if it was being said.
Using repetition as if she was talking to him and was in front of him.
The author talks bob about how love affects her feeling and how much it hurts, even knowing that love isn't meant to be understood, but to be felt.

Millay portrays powerful ideas about love in Sonnet 29 by using literacy devices and emotional and significant language.
Firstly, Edna uses personification to emphasise how she doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for her. An example of this is 'pity me not because of the light of the day'. This personification talks about a human figure that is gone and shows how the speaker might feel lonely and missing that person that 'is sun to her'. Also  'pity me not' is repeated as it shows the feeling of compassion caused by the suffering

In the poem 'Sonnet 29' by Edna St. Vincent Millay, the author expresses how hurt the speaker is when the love she needs from her man is no longer in existence anymore. The writer opened the poem with 'Pity me not' which sounds like an empathic command. 'Pity me not because the light of day/ At close of day no longer walks the sky'. Using the metaphor, informing that the speaker does not want her man to feel sorry for how she feels, Millay successfully portrays how the speaker is fully aware of the situation she is in and it's not that complicated but she can't control her feelings and no matter what she does, don't feel sorry for her in this situation because it would be ridiculous just like being pity for someone else because the sun has gone down which takes place every single day. Moreover, the personification of 'the sun'- we suppose- to be 'walking the sky' just like a human figure slowly fading that she misses, and it's possible that the person was like the Sun to her, bringing warm and light to her life. This reveals how much the speaker loves her man and that he makes her life so much happier like it was lit up when they met. Hence, we can understand how hard it is for her to let him go and accept the fact that he will no longer be there for her in the future. Even though she 'demanded' to not feel pity for her, but the 'story' reveals how much she is in love while the man isn't and it must have hurt her so much and so that we can show empathy for her after losing someone so significant in her life.

Millay speaks about the heart breaking emotions of the decrease of affection through her use of repetition. She writes “Pity me not because the light of day at close of day no longer walks the sky”, “Pity me not for the beauties passed away […]” ,“Pity me not the waning moon”. These are all metaphors and symbolisms for the warning of love. The “light” represents the glory, and the raise of joy of love. The “moon” the mysteries, amazement powers of passion. The readers feel her pain and can sympathize with Millay, as all this gets away from her. She repeats the phrase “pity me not” three times to emphasize why she shouldn’t be pitied.

In the poem "Sonnet 29" Edna St. Millay shows clear and powerful ideas about love. There are a few examples such as. "And you no longer look with love on me." This line clearly shows a theme of love, and a powerful idea by revealing that love is not permanent, revealing that love will betray you and hurt you. By using numerous personifications throughout the poem, the author express the ideas in a powerful way.

Millay's sonnet 29 represents the opposite of what a sonnet is typically about. The speaker talks about love that slipped from her instead of how amazing and wonderful it is, as per usual in a sonnet. “Pity me not because the light of day; at close of day no longer walks the sky; Pity me not for the beauties passed away; Pity me not the waning moon”. These metaphors and symbolisms represent the waning of love, the ‘normal’ expected fading of endearment. The ‘light’ represents the glory, faith, and uplifting joy of love, just as she describes how its leaves as the night overtakes the day. The readers feel her pain and sympathize with the speaker, as this affection is taken away from her with no fight. She repeats the phrase ‘pity me not’ three times, bringing forth the use of tripilling, to emphasize why she shouldn’t be pitied. She tries to claim that she understood love wouldn’t last, claim the blame for the heartache. This, however, has the opposite effect because it invokes even more pity for her in the readers as we can sense they’re conflicted emotions. It evokes more pity as we can see that she blames herself for this loss of this lust he once felt for her and that she knew it was to come sooner or later, showing she didn’t deem herself worthy of long lasting love or that she isn’t worth loving forever.

Millay engages with themes of nature and relationships. The speaker explores themes like nature, expressing that the disappearing or fading away is a natural part of life, and gives many examples of how this happens in nature “the moon wanes”, “the tide flows out”. So, she says that the man falling out of love with her is just natural, like all of these other processes, this is also where the theme of love comes from. The poet spends the poem having her speaker compare her relationship, the ups and downs of love, and even her perceptions of herself to the natural world.  She addresses her lover, telling them that they “no longer look with love” on her. She has no misapprehensions about the state of their relationship. Millay seems to assume that men cannot love if the woman has no beauty left. “The waning of the moon” can easily refer to the loss of romance and passion, since moonlight is often considered a sensuous setting.

In the poem, “Sonnet 29” Millay portrays love as an uncontrollable element of nature. Nature imagery like “strewing fresh wreckage gathered in the gales”. This line suggest that love itself is destructive and powerful. The use of the word “gales” reinforces the nature imagery as it represents stormy winds, which would connect to the way in which love is something natural that you can’t control, just like nature. The word “strewing” gives a sense of something being carelessly thrown away, which might refer to speakers past relationships and how her heart has been unrightfully treated previously. Together with alliteration “gathered in the gales” creates a chaotic atmosphere due to the “g” sound which represents this, often negative, phenomenon in nature, while “wreckage” suggests that it has been purposefully collected. This “wreckage” is a symbol to the way in which the speakers heart has been torn apart by the stormy winds, and now, she collects the bits and pieces to remember this period in her life and to try and put her heart back together, so she can try to love again. The use of a nature imagery is used to show that love and therefore the end of the speakers relationship is inevitable, it is something natural that she is not able to control, just like the sun setting and the tide going to sea. Millay was a modernist poet in 20th century and used to write about women getting rid of their roles in society. This poem could be seen as an act of rebellion as she is creating this new concept ,unknown to people at the time, that women might not like to express their affection by people that do not treat them with respect.

In the poem ‘Sonnet 29’ by the poet Edna Millay, reveals ideas about love and the influences between the speaker's heart and mind, giving the rational and emotional side of the whole situation. Millay uses a melancholic tone throughout the poem arguing about love and using negative connotations to describe it. Millay repeats the phrase “Pity me not” early on in the poem, using anaphora to reinforce the idea that the speaker doesn't want people to feel sorry for her recent breakup. She is trying to come across as strong even though she is starting to question how she visualises love. This suggests how her brain is giving her a variety of different reasons why she should move on and accept that love can fade and be unstable, showing readers the harsh and complicated reality of what love can be.

In this poem, Millay powerfully presents ideas about love by using various use of techniques. The first stanza begins with her rational comparisons of nature to love. In the use of Anaphora “Pity me not"/“Pity me” the author repeats the phrase "pity me not" early on in the poem, each time providing a new example from nature about why we shouldn’t feel sorry for her. The repetition of the phrase might suggest that she has an obsession with this man and their ended relationship, or it might indicate that her brain is trying to give lots of different reasons why she should accept it and move on. Eventually, this phrase breaks down and becomes positive instead of negative, she says ‘pity me’ and asks the addressee to feel sorry for her, suggesting she has let her emotions overcome her mind and that she is still broken in some ways despite trying to move on, showing how powerful is love and how can affect us by not being able to control it.

Edna St Vincent Millay’s poem follows a different pattern of Sonnet. In “Sonnet 29”, Millay displays a different perspective of love, portraying themes such as love impermanence, uncertainty, disappointment and nature of relationships, without breaking the structure of a classic Shakespearean Sonnet. The author reveals that through literary devices, comparison and contrast, imagery, repetition and metaphor, for example. The first and second lines of the poem expose the beginning some kind of extended metaphor, and, in addition, she compares the idea of love with elements of nature such as the sky and the sunlight, being further explored throughout the poem. Furthermore, she explores repetition of “Pity me (not)” throughout every stanza, with the intention of reassuring and emphasising a certain feeling or idea, which, in this particular case is the reassurance of her strength and how she does not wish to be pitied. Besides that, repetition is used as a device to create  rhythm to the poem. Later on in this poem, at the start of the last rhyming couplet, the speaker admits to being affected by the breakup as she now acknowledges how she truly feels about the breakup, clearly showing the contrast and the change of ideas. That also remits the idea of nature’s fluency of events and how she is not able to control such happenings. Therefore, in virtue of the facts aforementioned, it is concluded that the range of literary devices is essential for the creation of a powerful idea of love to the reader. Finally, the nature symbolism also reinforces the reflection and emotions presented in “Sonnet 29”.

Closely related to the poem's thematic treatment of impermanence, Millay cleverly uses language and structure to powerfully present ideas about love in the poem. With this, the speaker's presentation of natural imagery suggests that the whole world teaches her that nothing lasts forever. In fact, the mention of the 'tide' treading 'the shifting shore' emphasises this factor, made clear by the constant changing of the seas movements. An alternative interpretation is that the phrase is significant as the verb 'shifting' contains connotations towards the element of change, which can be connected towards the unknown 'tides' of love and relationships. This is clearly connected towards the idea of affection through 'love is no more', creating the impression that the speaker has given up on their resistance and has succumb to the established cycle of love, represented through the previous mention of nature.  Consequently, this impacts the reader by making them evaluate similar past experiences and compare their reactions to that expressed by the speaker. We could connect this towards contextual information as Millay was known to write about relationships, resulting in her winning a Pulitzer Prize for her thoughtful and often radical depictions of love. Overall, these variables all account towards presenting the idea of love in the poem and its unfortunate end as inevitable and something that no one, in this case, specifically the speaker, cannot control.

Millay is notoriously transcending, and one of the most striking ways in which she powerfully portrays a reflection of love in ‘Sonnet 29’ is through the untraditional way this poem is written. While sonnets typically present love as an unbreakable bond, usually through passionate colored glasses, Millay Strays away from these ideas by questioning the durability of love and the reasons why it is so quick to fail. In the first line the iambic pentameter is broken, resulting in a trochaic substitution that builds an uneasy tone to the poem. This emphasizes the contrasting ideas between ‘Sonnet 29’ and other sonnets as this atypical tone accompanied by heartbroken ideas, rivals everything else regarding this format. Millay was ahead of her time and continuously wrote astonishing pieces for the 1920s in an effort to steer the public mindset. This relates to her intentions with the poem as she constantly addresses trial and errors within love through the female perspective in the rhyming couplet and “desire is hushed so soon”. … I couldn’t finish :(

The poem Sonnet 29 is by a poet named Edna Millay , she explores the waves of emotions experienced by someone going through a heartbreak . “ This have i known always : Love is no more ” , this line represents the agony , grief and bitterness the speaker is going through as she experiences the pure pain of a heartbreak with the person she deeply loved . The connotation of the word “love” creates a positive atmosphere and generates the thoughts of passion and desire , but the speaker harshly destroys the perfect expectation of love by turning it into a sorrowful reality . Which gives the readers the tough idea that love may eventually fade and the person you thought you will end up with becomes this distant stranger in the fog , walking around with all these safe precious moments that now feel as though they were a dream or were never purely real .
