Edgar Allan Poe wrote the poem "A Dream Within A Dream" and it is very different from all his other literary work. This Romanticism poem has imagery, "And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-" and it hints at his feelings of losing someone "O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?" I think Poe is not wanting someone/something change but he knows it won't stay the same forever. This shows Romanticism because it leaves interpretation up to the reader, the I's have it, and there is the authors personal feelings.
