When we read the title, we often associate a love song with something cheerful, pleasant and celebratory, or its other extreme, repentant, nostalgic and full of pity for the problems of the singer in love. With Williams the singer, the main idea revolves around the concept of an incomplete union from the first-person point of view, which makes the reading more personal as the reader uses I instead of you or he. From this concept come the ideas that this poem is about desperation or happiness, communal sex or masturbation. By delving into the story, literary techniques, connection to the author, and one's opinion of it, there is easily more than meets the eye. My first and immediate explanation for the poem was a speech from a lover to a loved one, where distance became a factor in their relationship. The lover is much worse off than the desired partner, and loneliness creates nothing but longing for this person at the moment when his love is at its greatest. He says: "What will I tell you when we meet?... I'm alone" with my head thrown to the sky. He also asks, “How can I know if I will ever love you again like I do now?” There is uncertainty because one wonders about the next meeting with the loved one. He says, “I lie here thinking of you” and it is compelling when he wants his loved one to see him in the fifth verse and what love is doing to his state of mind. He is hopeless and expresses this by asking questions he is unsure of, conveying his troubled state. Williams uses visuals along with sound effects to demonstrate man's desperation in an almost dreamlike realm with purple skies, ruined colors and birds. Saying that he is alone and that his head is banging against the sky can underline the man's confusion. He also uses imagery in the “leaf-devouring love spot” and horned branches of saffron, vivid and easy to imagine images that captivate the reader. The phrase that says “a smooth, purple sky” and this stain that “ruins the colors of the whole world” easily formulate a very distinct picture. By consonance words like “eat” and “smear saffron” become more ferocious in the eyes of this lover as they erase a “smooth sky”. For those who disagree, it also seems to be about a lover who perceives the world through love. that he finds in the sunlight.
