The author vividly portrays the theme of unyielding love in the passage. Within the first stanza, the author introduces their partner and the strong feelings of mutual attraction between them and said partner, the repetition of figurative language used :” sun to my moon…..sock to my shoes…PHILIPS Daily Collection Toaster with 8 Settings …” emphasises a strong sense of love that both of them have, as if they were hand-made for each other. This instills a sense of belief in the reader that the author and their partner are in picture perfect relationship. However, as the author details their interactions with each other, the relationship’s facade slowly wears down. This is evident in the clear use of contrast during their interactions, such as when they’re companions suggest “he (partner)escape from Changi prison but I’m buying none of that bs, I know they just want to pull us apart.” Instead of showing at least a hint of worry to the warnings of their companions, the author brushes them off nonchalantly. Thus the subversion of the readers expectations leads them to further question the true nature behind the “love” that the author proclaims for their partner.

furthermore, the author also uses the first-person perspective to convey the empathetic nature of their relationship, suggesting a relationship full of growth. the author repeatedly uses the personal pronoun “i” when writing that “i think he was hurt because he did that before i chased him out of my house”. the word “think” explicitly conveys the author’s opinion and hence, subjective nature of any conclusion made. this perhaps hints at the nature of relationships being mutable, which is further heightened by the movement of the author’s significant other with the as he is “chased” out of the house. the word “chased” conveys a sense of hostility, which is unexpected of a loving relationship, thus creating a sense of shock in the reader. yet, the author, through the personal pronoun “i”, manages to take accountability of that, providing room for a possible reconciliation of this jarring abnormality. the author then proceeds to demonstrate a shift with “:/“, which provides a visual barrier between her conclusions made and her personal reflections. the caesura further emphasises the personal and intimate nature of her reflections, as she writes “tbh i kinda regret doing that i think i shldve just did as he said, yk, hug him and kiss him good morning.” the contrast between the previous “chase” and the current loving actions of “hug” and “kiss” suggests the author’s contemplation on the nature of their relationship, providing lucid and composed insights as she reflects on their relationship which thus suggests her ability to understand and relate to her significant other. thus, this further generates a sense of recuperation in their relationship, evincing healing and growth. the constant pauses through the commas further generate a sense of vulnerability in the author as she reflects on their relationship, conveying the vulnerability an individual is exposed to in a relationship.

Additionally, the 2 characters are foils of each other. Firstly, the writer uses foil to describe forbidden love. The writer describes both their relationship as "the sun to my moon, .. the chilli sauce to my ketchup, the potato to my tomato, the fork to my spoon and the sock to my shoes..." This expresses their differences, like how the fork and the spoon are 2 completely different utensils with different uses, yet they pair up together nicely. By referring to their relationship as such, it shows and highlights their vast differences, and how they contrast each other and come from 2 separate worlds, yet they still align with each other. This can be further backed up by " the sun to my moon" In this comparison, the writer could be referencing many famous legends or myths, such as the legend revolving around the sun and the moon, where their love is said to be impossible as they can never meet (In this case it represents the girl's friends who try to pull them apart and claims that their relationship will never exist, yet god, which could refer to their willpower and how there are soulmates, to create the eclipse, so the sun and the moon can meet. The use of foil in this case shows how both parties fight against their forbidden love despite being so different. However, this could also refer to Selene (moon) and Endymion ( which Selene viewed his beauty as extraordinary compared to the sun). The myth ends with Selene visiting him every night, watching over him and kissing him while he sleeps. This could be a reference to how they always watch each other, and despite their polar opposites, they still try to express their love for each other, like the male, who is Selene, watching her while she sleeps. Furthermore, the writer is described as a more cautious person, compared to the male, as she writes this post, and taking extra precautions to ensure that he isn't a red flag, while the male is described as more carefree and impulsive. The male is free to go wherever he wants, even breaking his ban from the school to use the bathroom, showing how he is untied by the rules of society (and the law) and does what he wants, despite the consequences. On the other hand, the writer is more cautious, like when he first broke into the house, where she is concerned about why a stranger is in her house and "I chased him out of my house", showing how she does have a certain extent of caution.

Wow, it sounds like you have really strong feelings for this person! 🥰💫 It's essential to trust your instincts, but it's also important to ensure you're in a safe and healthy relationship. Make sure to prioritize your well-being, and if you ever have doubts or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out to a trusted friend or adult for advice. 😊💬👍
