I love that revenge Pom it makes me feel better and help me breathing batter

Go thou and watch her lightest sigh, — Thine own it will not be; And bask beneath her sunny eye, — It will not turn on thee. great write 10+++++

This poem is very gay thank you and bye!

Simple and sentimental must be the most puerile and inane criticism ever aimed at a poet. In this age of novelties, we should not forget that Landon was startlingly original, of internationally fame and hugely influential. One might accept the combination of 'cold and sentimental' and 'flat and intense'. That intensity is certainly evident in 'Revenge' but it is not unusual and the powerful undercurrents in her work are not that difficult to spot.

........truly a great write....now she feels revenged....after giving him her heart and he smashed it to pieces....for she knows he isn't loved as well.... ~'Tis well: I am revenged at last, Mark you that scornful cheek, The eye averted as you pass'd, Spoke more than words could speak. .....and the last line says it all ~For thou art nor beloved. ~

Instead of. All that you taught my heart to bear. To, all that you may know.

beautiful creation. lovely write

(If this turns out to be a repetition, I'm sorry. I wrote the comment earlier and then had to renew my password.) Shouldn't the penultimate word be not rather than nor? There is nothing odd (poetic though it is) about the diction of the rest of the poem, but For thou art NOR beloved seems meaningless, while For thou art NOT beloved is quite natural.

Revenge comes at a price, thou wishes to punish thy for his mortal sins when one considers the uncontrolable pain he has brought apon thou heart. For this you will enjoy a moment of shine but only to be filled with an eturnal rhym of why did I? A beautiful poem, consider that revenge isn't always the answer, turn to the open hearts of your loved ones and you will find a way, I promise you this.

I thought it was a typical revengeful poem... until I got near the end. And then I got to the end.
