I Am Not Alone
I Am Not Alone - meaning Summary
Presence Amid Solitude
The poem contrasts a vast, empty world—night, sky, human sorrow—with the intimate presence of a caregiver who rocks, holds, and hugs. Despite external desolation, the speaker finds companionship and purpose in comforting another. The repeated refrain affirms that shared tenderness wards off isolation; the poem presents consolation as an interpersonal refuge against loneliness.
Read Complete AnalysesThe night, it is deserted from the mountains to the sea. But I, the one who rocks you, I am not alone! The sky, it is deserted for the moon falls to the sea. But I, the one who holds you, I am not alone ! The world, it is deserted. All flesh is sad you see. But I, the one who hugs you, I am not alone!
