Break Break Break
Wednesday, 30 July, 2025
"Break, Break, Break" by Alfred Lord Tennyson is a poignant poem about mourning and the pain of losing a loved one. The poet reflects on the relentless waves crashing against the shore, using them as a symbol of his inner grief. While the world continues,children play, fishermen go about their day,he feels emotionally frozen, overwhelmed by the absence of a dear friend. Tennyson expresses a deep longing for "the touch of a vanished hand" and "the sound of a voice that is still," capturing the silent ache of bereavement and the contrast between personal sorrow and the indifferent flow of life.
