Symbolism Analysis Cont.

How can the poem fit the images? 

anxiety, intimidation, freedom, solitude, tranquility- are these present in the poem??


Line by line explanation. IDEAL MEANING

"I stand by a line...to somewhere from somewhere else" - I'm in the midst of a decision.

"It stretches...half leaving. Half approaching" - The choice is large, the results unknown. Anxiety moves in.
   
"The great narrow....without direction. Sanctuary." - The pressure to choose encroaches on my mind.

"Behind a silent...out of reach." - I meditate on things. Anxiousness cannot reach me.

"I persist not of fear...my own expectation and belief." - I base my decisions on myself and what best for me, not because I am afraid.

"I am the mirror of decision." - I will not be forced to make a choice. I am what I do.
