Published in 1849 Annabel Lee was the last published poem by Edgar Allan Poe The poem describes the tragic death of a young woman Annao Lee from the perspective of her lover Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe It was many and many a year ago In a kingdom by the sea That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of ANNABEL LEE 5 And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me I was a child and she was a child In this kingdom by the sea Which lines supports the theme that grief can become overpowering But our love it was stronger by far than the love Of those who were older than we Of many far wiser than we 30 And neither the angelin heaven above Nor the demons down under the sea Can ever dissever my soul from the soul of the beautiful Annabel Lee For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams 35 Of the beautiful Annabel Lee
