My Essay On The Raven
The raven, by Edgar Allan Poe, was
A bitter realization that not everything
Goes as planned. There
are bigger days ahead.
Just you wait and see.
Don’t give up,
Keep on trucking, don’t bend in the wind,
Let the wind behind you.
The better days are not
Bigger and better in the past, but they are
What lies ahead of you-destiny is what you
Make it. You can keep
climbing to what you think
You should have, or you can roll over and die
Like the narrator of the raven thought there
Was a ghost in his house even though there wasn’t,
Because, sometimes, the mind plays tricks on you
When you’re alone, and most people do not dwell
Very well on the account of being alone. Then the
Darkness of the night sinks in and you wonder what
Lurks under your bed, you wonder what lurks in
Someone’s heart who lives down the hall, you
Wonder what bugs are lurking under your pillow.
Sometimes wondering is the only thing you can do.
Sometimes doing nothing is better.
But all in all, you keep trucking, and everything will
Get better; believe me, it does.
