About This Quote
This quote has been used to express a man’s appreciation of a beautiful woman. In this expression, the author used the term “poemical” in a positive manner to mean that a beautiful woman is a topic that can be written about in a poetic way. Although this may seem strange, the idea is that when you’re looking at someone beautiful, you feel yourself lacking something. This quote expresses the idea that when you lose someone beautiful, your life loses its poetry and beauty. In other words, when someone you love dies, your life becomes duller and less interesting until you lose them.
