What will your verse be?

Music and poetry are to art forms that are very similar. In some obvious ways they are different but their overall themes and they way they convey ideas are the same. The poems “Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone” by W.H. Auden and “To my dear and loving husband” by Anne Bradstreet can both be compared to the song “Without You” by David Guetta ft. Usher. Although every piece of poetry or music can be interpreted differently, the overall theme and message these three pieces present are similar.
            The poem “To my dear and loving husband” is an overall positive piece that conveys the love a wife and husband have. In the song “Without you” Guetta expresses his live that he once had for someone. They both show two people how have or had a strong connection with one another. But although in Guetta’s song he no longer has the same connection with the person it still shows how strong love can be and how two people can be so strongly connected that when they are apart they are engulfed in sadness. In the poem the author wrote “While we live, in love lets so preserver, that when we live no more we may live ever” (Auden 470). This shows how strong a loving relationship can be.

Also the poem “Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone” shows a similar concept. This piece however has a saddening mood to it unlike the other two. This poem is very deep and is full of emotion. Again it shows how strong a relationship can be. The character in this poem lost his loved one who he obviously had a loving relationship with. He gives off an emotion of agony and by reading you can almost feel the pain that he is feeling as you read. It is a very good piece. This poem is also similar  to the song “Without You” by David Guetta” They both lose a loved one and express their sadness.

All three are very deep pieces that take a lot of comprehension to really understand what the artists’ are trying to convey. They all show the strength of love, and how devastating it is or would be to lose a loved one. One discusses the result of losing your loved one, while the other emphasizes how strong love can be. Guettas song ties both of them together giving both perspectives in his own unique way. Love is dangerously powerful and isn’t something to be taken lightly.
