repetition of the way society views her, her reputation

repetition of chorus to once again state the main points of the song

repetition of title

once more talking of how she is portrayed in society, a crazy woman who gets into too many relationships

the relationship will either leave u speechless because of how amazing it is or mentally scared because of how terrible the relationship as a whole was or how it ended.

reasons why Swift chooses to have "many" romantic relationships she is experimenting in her youth and finding out who she could truly see herself being with forever

using age as a way to reassure themselves the reason for the polarity and instability in the relationship

repetition once more listeners can see the lines that Swift makes sure to reintroduce throughout the entire song, sharing her portrayed reputation time and time again

repetition of the previous lines, emphasizing the point maybe even saying that the reason she is "crazy" is because boys don't love her when she is authentically herself

using this song as a warning? could also be referring to the previous line saying that she has told them how others refer to her, insane

stating that men are not interested in a pure love, they have that desire to want something more exciting and painful

while could be seen as sarcastic, can also be seen as Swift saying while despite what media thinks, her heart is not full with people and she is still waiting for the right person

repetition, chorus used to emphasize the main idea of the song including the polarity of the relationship, stereotype of women that Swift is mocking, and maybe a genuine note about how she feels at the end

stating that she goes after the wrong guys, maybe giving an answer on why she has had many public relationships not last

questioning if the short-lived happiness was worth the heartbreak that she knew was inevitable from the start

repetition, talking about the polarity of the relationship

once more negative word compared to positive word

despite her appearance and being very inviting, she is not the perfect, sweet girl she appears to be

play at stereotypical jealous girlfriend, once more mocking stereotypes

perfect image that Swift had put up is now damaged, despite the pretty appearance, hurt and pain are deep rooted and you're bound to get hurt reminds me of the line about love being torture, picking up a beautiful rose will leave you in pain because of the thorns with it

almost implies she can create a whole new story within her head, mocking a stereotype that goes with woman changing the story in order to fit their desires

despite storms being mostly used negatively, Swift is saying these are perfect, maybe they were fated, meant to happen

once more usage of a positive and negative

drastic shift mood, much more aggressive and negative

implies their relationship is only dealing with the positives at this time, the negatives are about to show

Swift is only pretending to be perfect in order for the guy to be attracted to her almost gives off insecurity, has to pretend to be something she isn't in order to give attention

mocking the stance of the man being the dominant one, kings are usually seen as more powerful as kings in society

the words stolen and lies show negative connotations but are contradicted by the words kisses and lies maybe continuing to play onto the fact of the positives and negatives when it comes to her?

positive connotation

sarcastic, playing on the fact people believe she is a player, saying the guy could be the next person that she is supposedly in love with

blank space in her heart, she has room in her heart for the guy to be stating that she has fallen in love with the guy?

repetition, pushing the point of her bad reputation could even mean that she is trying to warn the guy about her past before getting him too involved

the relationship that was meant to be a "game" or something fun will turn into something too serious

once more talking about how their relationship will either be good or bad maybe showing that she is quick to change moods, quick to show her good and then bad side

referring to herself as a game, maybe with her status as a player, people often see her as a challenge to break people using her as a way of entertainment

playing into the idea of her being a player

emphasis on the reputation Swift holds, confirms it is indeed negative

either this relationship will be great and long-lasting or end in a terrible way fire symbolizes anger, relationship will end in anger and strong emotions

trying to convince the guy,

focusing on looks, plays into the idea that the world has of her being a player because she is only looking at appearance

emphasize on how quick the relationships between her and others go, playing into the role that society has given her as a player

plays more into the idea of that Swift views it as a game, very sarcastic tone

infers that she has a reputation, most likely a bad one Taylor swift has been negatively noted to be a player

the idea she has of him is made up by rumors

already has an idea of what the guy is like by his appearance, descriptive words make it seem like the guy is more stuck up due to the fact she is focusing on his money

comparing love to a game makes it seem not serious, making it seem fun and playful while love is usually seen as something serious

has not had a good past in relationships, referring to other relationships as mistakes, regretful

she has flaws but also things that make her good polar opposites

maybe even sarcastic? they haven't been around each other in a while, feels like they are meeting for the first time ever

meeting someone for the first time, warmness in tone

something empty, something lacking

once more repetition, they will always be perfect for one another

she views him as a dream, emphasizes how she views him as a dream, he's perfect

famous actor, known for his looks

repetition, emphasizes her desire to be her him

she ignores the toxic cycle and gives in, she wants to continue her relationship with the guy

repetition, despite toxic cycle they come together once more and are perfect again

once more only describing their looks, only know each other on a surface level

this could also be meaning that despite their tiring cycle, they never truly get tired of it, they view each other as in style implying that they think their dynamic is cool

only description of the guy is of appearance, almost implies that they don't know each other on a deeper level

once more pairing their appearance together, they go together perfectly

she relates to this, she has also tried to move on but can't, also shows that she hasn't been loyal to him during their break which is different from her usually songs that show the wrong doings of the guy

despite him trying to move on from their relationship, he can't bring himself to do so, he's honest with her

they aren't loyal to each other, more toxicity she's not really upset at this rumor, maybe she knows that they will always come back together eventually

the cycle continues, after they drive he's staying over, "taking off his coat" implies that he is staying a while and getting comfortable

another form of darkness of their relationship

he can't keep his eyes off her, not able to focus on the road, implies affection he has of her but, also can show that he's infatuated with her looks, not really her personality?

repetition, emphasizes the toxic relationship the two go through with one another

despite their toxic cycle within their relationship, they are still perfect together, they are still "in style"

pairing of description of one another, shows that they are perfect together

toxic cycle emphasizes, they fight, but in the end they always find their way back to one another,

describing the guy, implying that he is perfect. maybe reassuring herself the toxic cycle is worth it for someone who is perfect?

reminds me of a merry go round. this is saying that the cycle of them meeting and then ignoring each other is a cycle that continues. a toxic cycle

implies this is a situation that is reoccurring, not a one time thing.

knows that he isn't truly good for her, realizes what she should be doing instead of willingly hanging out with him

they don't keep in contact, only hang out when it's convenient? the guy was the one to initiate contact, power dynamic maybe?

the drive could either end super bad or really good, implies the end of their relationship

Implies that they hang out at night, which is known that couples who only hang out and talk at night don't truly care for one another

sets a setting for the song

mysterious mood, gives darkness because lack of light

almost evil effect

also could be defending the wall, not wanting it to break

reoccurring, boundary of wall has always been there

despite maybe not truly agreeing with the saying, he sticks to what he has known

secret, mysterious

how the narrator sees the neighbor, maybe implies that he's the one who has damaged the wall?

repetition,narrator does not like the wall

walls are only needed where there are things like cows, places you need to contain something, human building up emotional walls is only needed when trying to cease emotions

wants to convince him that the wall is not needed, pleading

he believes the wall is needed, does not want the distance to be shorten

the narrator is expressing the uselessness of the wall to the neighbor, feels strongly that there is no point to the wall

his side of the wall holds pine tree while the narrators holds an orchard, shows uselessness of the wall

the wall is actually not needed, the distant between the two is useless

metaphor of fixing something broken, sometimes in order to fix something you have to go through more hurt

emphasizes the damage of the wall

they do not warm up to each other, uncomfortable in each other's presence.

creating distance between the two, shows distant relationship, they are not close

ominous tone, nobody knows how the wall is able to become so damaged

the hunters are the ones who do not like the wall, the narrator is the one who goes to the wall in order to make repairs.

once more talking of the damaged wall

implying that the wall is in need of fixing, something that is by the wall, whether its natural or not, does not like it. It's causing the wall to be damaged

The narrator does not like the wall, maybe it does not like the separation it brings? The wall is in the way of things

idea of separation,

pine trees are always green, while apple trees go out of season

implies something is broken, needs mending?

lighthearted

though experiencing loss is seen as difficult and has the value to ruin you, learning to accept defeat and continue your life is not as difficult as you would imagine

idea of being able to pick yourself up after loss and go on with your life

despite losing these things, because she has had to master the art of loss from a young age, she didn't allow it to ruin her and her attitude

emphasis on the great deal she has loss throughout her life

she has experienced a lot of loss within her life

she is able to accept the loss of these people, and connects the art of losing to herself. she believes that she has mastered the art of loss

at a young age, her family died, had to master the art of losing people at a young age, had to master being able to continue with your life after a big loss

losing things that are bigger and more significant in your life, like dreams of your future

after practicing loss on small things within your life, allow yourself to become comfortable with the ideas of main things in your life, including friends, dreams, aspirations being lost

repetition, stating the main point of the poem which is losing is apart of life and to not let it overcome you

allow yourself to be defeated or feel like something has been lost instead of overwhelming yourself

lose something everyday in order to master the art of loss, allows the initial loss to not overwhelm you

something was doomed from the beginning, making their lost not significant because it was expected compared to the loss of something that was supposed to succeed.

some things are destined to be lost from the beginning

unlike like other art forms, losing isn't a difficult skill to be good at

the art of something, grief and loss

idea of her being an artist

the ocean is very old, the sea is growing old and tired of the constant damage that humans do upon it

despite the ability to continue being apart of the world, it will never be as great as it once was because of the damage

history has shown that despite all of the damage the ocean has had to endure, it will be able to continue being apart of the world

heavy negative connotation, showing the negative things that have happened to the ocean, pollution

visible

talking of pollution in the ocean, abuse by humans of the oceans? maybe talking of the way the water has affected the cliff that is next to the ocean because of the use of edifice

describes the diversity of the ocean, showing the greatness

using a strong metal, like iron, to describe the power the ocean has

gives darker effect by using the word bodies, creepy and eerie

the sun is able to show the true beauty of the sea

simile, allows us to see more of an image in our heads

the word choice shows that there isn't much suns other than shafts peering through the waves, carries on the darkness of the ocean

talking of the things within the ocean, setting up theme of environment

hints at the focus of the title and maybe the perspective

once again setting up a darker feel to the ocean, the fish is swimming seeing these things

dark blue, darkness of the sea, maybe showing how unknown the ocean is?

describes the darkness of the ocean, appealing to imagery

feeling that he shouldn't be speaking indifferently because the father makes so much sacrifices for him and the family

narrator and father not close, cannot talk with each other on a deeper level

no one, implying that even the narrator does not thank him, father still makes the family feel comfortable despite lack of appreciation

not excited to be called, shows distant between family?

emphasizes how hard-working the father is, physical damage because of amount of work

harsh cold winter, reason for getting up early, needs to make house warm

implies that he does this throughout the entire week, not just sundays

stuff that the father does to him, making the narrator forget all of the bad within the household

questioning his traumatic feelings of the family because his father does so much and takes care of the family

starts the fire in the morning so family can wake up to warmth

warmth fills the house because of the early mornings of his father

nobody noticed his hard work or what he provided to the household

sunday is usually the day of rest, father works on a universal day of rest, emphasizes how hard his father works

referring to his traumatic childhood?

mood is brought down, more negative feeling of doubt, and failure, fall of climax

mood picks back up despite his fall, he was able to be successful relating to the death of his friend, despite his death his legacy is still successful

turner looked at his basketball team as a family, shows how much basketball meant to him, he felt a family relationship between his teammates

the guard guards the player that was running beside turner, allowing turner to continue his way to the net

builds climax, very fast paced

he (Turner) loved basketball as much as someone would love their country, very prideful of it and relates a sense of home to being on the court.

the player is too complex of a basketball player for the other team to catch up or to understand his moves

flat-footed = insulting the other team, their defender is not great and is not a match to their tram

the moment of the ball barely making it in it, suspenseful and thrilling, starting off hopeful by their team gaining possession of the ball

basketball is taken like a valuable gift to the players, they are very passionate about it, very serious about the game
