Robert and Elizabeth’s Poetry

In Elizabeth’s poetry it shows her idea of worshiping her lover and having the mindset that he can do no wrong. With Robert Browning’s work he focuses on something very strange: a lover who is deeply in love with a woman but is a bit psychotic because he kills the woman that loves him back because he believes she wants it. In the story the man truly loves the woman, and the woman loves him back. The both of the stories are similar, but in Robert Browning’s poetry he shows the man doing something wrong, but in the psychotic brain he is doing something out of love. Both of the works of poetry combined can in a way represent reality because there are those kind of people out there who are madly in love with each other and will do what they think they should to keep that love. Robert Browning’s poetry reminds me a bit of Edgar Alan Poe in regards to one part of Annabel. In Annabel, Edgar’s poetic character sleeps next to his deceased love’s body. This is similar to Robert Browning’s poetry in that he also spends time with the deceased woman, with an undying love for her. I am not very surprised that the two are married because they both have an enjoying time writing poems about love.
