Sonnet 146

This sonnet is basically questioning the point of living if you’re just going to die anyways. This sonnet is probably one of the most difficult for me to understand. It is really jumpy and I don’t really know what’s going on. The last line in the sonnet is really interesting to me though. It says, “And death once dead, there’s no more dying then”. I like this line because it just states death is done once you’re already dead. The way that Shakespeare worded it was very neat. The rest of the poem is pretty confusing though and not one of my favorites.
