Analysis and comments on Sorrow by Edna St. Vincent Millay

Comment 2 of 2, added on March 24th, 2005 at 11:22 PM.

This poem is so powerful! It tells how when you're alone and depressed, you
are able to exress all your passion and fury, but when you're being watched
you, for some unexplainable reason, withhold all your emotions but NEVER
stop feeling your pain. And as others are getting on with life, you are
stationary; diverting your thoughts from what's hurting you.
