Now That You're Gone by Fernando Ortega
I knew this life was full of sorrow 1. What literary tool is used here?
but still I believed
that good times _________ follow,
that the evil would falter 2. How is apostrophe used in the song?
and true hearts would rise,
true hearts would rise,
that _________ dream ended
on the night that you died.
And even the _________ of a whistle fading 3. What kind of imagery is used here?
brings back the longing
and stirs _________ the aching.
Peaceful companion that grounded my soul,
you grounded my soul,
the world spins _________ meaning
now that you’re gone.
Sometimes I still think
I will see you in New York,
and we will _________ on the platform of the train, 4. How is diction used in the song?
and with your great leaning stride
you’ll cross back to my side
and my old life
will be my life again.
You were quiet as a winter sky 5. What literary tool is used here?
where _________ turn
and the North Star rides.
My _________ brother, so reasoned, so calm,
my brother, my own,
the world spins without meaning 6. What is the author trying to say?
now that you’re gone.
