I think she continues to love him from a distance, but she is done. the song sounds final, like there is a loss. he has damaged her, she can't trust her own perception of reality.

accepting truth in disappointment and hurt.

Maybe the darkness also becomes part of what makes him so real to her. he's too messed up and self-centered to appreciate it. it's like looking in a mirror.Īfter everything she thinks it is strange he never knew how much she really wanted to care and how sincere she was and wanted to be the one to make him happy and for him to be the one to make her happy. she is hurt and depressed and has lost hope. I think it also means that she begins to see the darkness in him, in herself. at first she looked to him as someone to make her happy, but ended up trying to be everything to make him happy. i think this means she loved him so much he became everything to her. his heart is too protected, but he smiles knowing what she has given him. he realizes how much she loved him, but it's too late. She doesn't normally open up to people easily either, but she offered her heart to him, to be her home, and welcomed his. I believe the "truth" she looks to him to see, is also the depressing realization that she can't look to someone else to make her happy.

she has to remind herself he can't give back. and that "nothing" has become truth to her. She looks to him and sees "nothing" because what she originally saw in him doesn't really exist. what she thought was inside of him really isn't there (but she loves him anyway). he doesn't, or can't really love her back. She realizes she will never really get through to him. she thinks he is damaged and has a dark perception of the world. but the person had many walls built up, she tried to reach through them and show how much she cares. Prufrock can only experience love through other people, at second- and third-hand.She thought she finally found someone true, and fell in love with them. He truly believes his beloved has sent him signals that she likes him, but he is worried that he might be misinterpreting her signals.

Prufrock imagines that his love would say, "That is not what I meant at all." What would she be responding to, and what did he think she ‘"meant.".

What is the real reason that Prufrock never asks his "overwhelming question"?.

At what points in the poem does he seem more interested in love, and at what points does he not seem to care?.

Is the title accurate in calling the poem a "love song"? Do you think Prufrock is really in love?.

Whatever it is, the feeling never goes anywhere, and Prufrock is left to drown with his would-be beloved in the deep, deep ocean. But he’s so vain and so taken up with trivial pleasure like coffee and peaches that it’s hard to believe that the feeling he has is really "love." It might just be lust or just a strong attraction. There are a couple of points where he almost overcomes his massive fear of rejection, especially when he is standing on top of the stairs and wondering, "Do I dare?" (line 38). Maybe he’s too shy to speak his mind, although "cowardly" seems more accurate. He speaks about himself a lot, and he ignores her, or "us," for most of the poem. It’s hard to tell whether Prufrock is really in love with the person he is talking to.
