Endless Love

Love can become an addiction that can destroy your life and the lives of others. Being addicted to someone is not healthy because it can cause confusion and problems. The poster for Franco Zeffirelli’s Endless Love (1981) shows two young teens falling in love. In the top right corner, there is a quote that says, “she is 15. he is 17. the love every parent fears”. This quote caught my attention because it changed my interpretation of the image. When I saw the image, I thought that the film was going to be a typical love story. However, the quote helped me understand that the film has a tragedy because fear usually has do with something bad happening. This poster creates the image that the guy is desperate for the girl by the way his…

Track 1: “Love Yours” by J Cole The Album 2014 Forest Hills Drive was one of the many anticipated albums of the year. It was promised to be Jermaine Cole’s best work. Although it was different, it did not disappoint its audience. One of the more underrated songs of that Album was “Love Yours”. This song starts off with a soothing steady beat with a undertone of sadness, but as it progresses it steadily builds suspension and builds rhythm and it brings your heart to a race. Every single of my…

It is a blessing from God. Do we appreciate life or just let it flow on its own? People do not realize the blessing of life, after all once it is taken away from you, that is the end. If there were anyone who could tell us how pleasurable life is, it would definitely be the dead. We spend our lives procrastinating, leaving tasks for tomorrow, not certain we will even wake up the next day. Dickenson also proves this message as she assures the readers that we do not purposely dress for our funeral…

The endless nights, the ambushes, the disappearances. Next comes the biggest change of all. Mary Anne starts going to battles, experiences a new high. She begins killing and taking multiple war souvenirs. “Twice, though, she came in late at night. Very late. And then finally she did not come in at all” (99). But how is this just a change? How has she not gone crazy? She is collecting a necklace of tongues and chanting and dancing around a leopard head. What about the other hundred soldiers that…

I will be identifying Anne Bradstreet’s usage of imagery in her poem “To My Dear and Loving Husband.” The key imageries will be analyzed in the way she uses it, how it functions, work together, the ideas/feelings delivered, and how it contributes to the meaning of the poem. Her consistency of her tone through out the poem displays her emotions of happiness she feels towards her husband. The image Bradstreets utilizes works well in forming coherent patterns. We can see this through the imagery…

the Merriam Webster dictionary, the definition of the word love is a strong affection for another. People have the opportunity to love anything their heart wants to, anything that makes them happy or objects that have a sentimental value to them. Even the slightest actions from the simplest movements from a person can make you fall more in love than you already are. This four letter word that is used everyday, sometimes for its actual meaning or sometimes just to exaggerate what they are saying,…

dad that loved each other… or so I thought. The next my family was torn apart. Not all families are meant to stay together forever, when you no longer love a person the way you use to sometimes you just have to let go so you don’t hurt them more than you already are and that just happened to be the case for my family. Having your parents get divorced is a very hard thing in general, but when you have to hear the story for the first time, deal with all the emotions, move from home to home every…

When you think of the words love, and war, many may think of a war that is resolved by love in the end. By war we mean a kind of hostility or conflict between two parties, normally between two nations. Even though it is difficult to put down in words a feeling to help describe the details as delicate as love, we generally mean a kind of deep affection one has with another. Here love simply means the romantic lust one has with another, whether it is between a man and woman, or one with someone…

Esteban’s desperateness to find Alba shows his love towards the only meaningful person left in his life. Without Alba, Esteban becomes nothing more than a “poor destroyed old man.” The reform-like actions taken by Esteban, saving his old foe and daughter, and having a beautiful bond with his granddaughter illustrate a moral revival in him. Esteban’s reforming and mending of his relationships towards the end of his life creates sympathy, proving further Howard’s claim that despite Esteban’s…

poems I 've chosen are Valentine and Mean Time by Carol Ann Duffy. The poems come from the collection 'Mean Time ' and both have themes of love, loss and regret. The title 'Valentine ' has strong connotations with love and lust however the opening line is a contradiction to this. This line is alone to show this isn 't a generic story and adds to the love as it shows they have a connection where love isn 't stereotypical, it 's strange and different to what most people know love to be. The…
