Analysis and comments on My Heart Is Heavy by Sara Teasdale

Comment 3 of 3, added on June 27th, 2007 at 3:23 AM.

I think this poem is saying that her heart belongs to a song; her partner.

She is saying she cannot give you her heart, as it doesnt belong to her,
someone already has it.
I think she is saying that her heart is being weighed down by committment
and she caves in, and the fruit (her heart) has fallen from the tree and
she allows someone else to take it.

i really enjoyed and when i write my poetry i always look up to her and her
pieces that she has written when she was alive and it didnt really confuse
me becuase it was very deep and i get things like that i great it a perfect
10!
