CONTENT ANALYSIS

Ella Wheeler Wilcox’s “Solitude” is about the relationship between the individual and the outside world. In the first stanza Wilcox shows how you must face your problem instead of seeking happiness through others. The poet says that when you are happy and joyful, people will want to be around you, when you are depressed nobody will be there for you. People will only want you at your best and never at your worst.
