Read these lines from Emily Dickinson’s poem "Heart, we will forget him". Heart, we will forget him! You and I, to-night! You may forget the warmth he gave, I will forget the light. The use of personification in these lines helps the reader

The speaker addresses the heart as if it were a person and urges it to forget someone. The warmth and light represent what that person once gave, and the effort to forget suggests emotional pain and loss. This personification helps readers understand the writer’s sadness, not learn literal facts about the heart or memory.
