Symbol

Definition: Something that represent something else in a deeper meaning.

Example:

Storm me

I already tasted my one piece
of a crazy love that took away
my sanity as if a spider inside of me
you devoured me and attack me
in an inverted way, you’re creeping’ here
inside of me where I’m more fragile
oh how clever you are, your simple
you made me sleepless and raise my breathe
and turn it to a tornado, I now whirls
in my own little world now my beds
looks like a thousand storms has passed by
oh that made me tired.

Significance: We use symbol to represent something that we want to talk about. Maybe we want the poem to have both meaning of the symbol, and the meaning of the thing it symbolize for. It can make the reader think more, and also understand it in their own way.
