It is about someone being rejected and then turning to God.
Oh my love/God
Brackets suggest secrecy
More confident in the second half
Found strength in God
Lots of similarities between the two halves (parallelism) emphasises the similarities of the processes
The narrator...
Wants acceptance
Someone to love her
Not strong enough on our own we need love
It is devotional poetry
Religious
A lot of religious imagery, ideology
Biblical references
Biblical allusions
Comparisons
Maude Clare
Same imagery and idea of posetion
"Take my share of a fickle heart" - Maude Clare
No, Thank You, John
Idea of rejection
Both conclude that they don't need a male lover
