questions (cont.)

1. After reading the first line, I imagine that two people are breaking up because of the "kiss and part" at the end of the line. The tone seems to be a helpless and sad one because the poem says that they only break up because they can't get help for their relationship.
2. The next three lines give off a more proud and independent tone. When he talks about being free and that this persons spouse can get no more from them... maybe because they were using them. He also states that he is glad with all his heart but that could also be the narrator trying to convince them self of it also. Maybe the narrator really doesn't want to leave their spouse but has no control over it.
3. Again I feel that the narrator is trying to convince them self that this is a good thing and that it would be great to be independent again. However, The narrator probably still loves their spouse but either they are going to die or have no control over where they are going. The narrator simply uses this line to show that they never want to see their spouse again because it makes him sad.
4. Actually it seems like maybe the spouse is dying... This would explain the line better. The narrator is so sad that their spouse is dying that they want to forget them but at the same time, they love them and still want a memory of them together. If that was said to me, I would be a little depressed...
5. The narrator is saying that even though their relationship is looking very grim, that maybe it can still be salvaged one day if their spouse does so choose to fix them self up a bit. However, t is a very depressing way to look at the whole thing.
6. You is maybe dying, maybe not. Also you seems to have a bad personality and doesn't treat the narrator like he or she would like to be treated. The narrator seems so happy to be breaking it off that i cant imagine that their spouse was any kind of a good person. However, the narrator could have seen a glimpse of good in them because they still think that their spouse can be good again as seen in the last line.
7. Maybe the whole thing was about losing her as a potential wife and gaining her as a friend. Everyone goes through that time when they like someone but that someone doesn't like them back... it hurts. This whole thing could be about his struggle to get over her and to just accept being a great friend for her.
