Explanation:

The Raven is the most famous poem by Edgar Allan Poe. When it was first published on January 29, 1845, it brought him worldwide fame.

The poet talks about losing his love, Leonore. That loss is colored by mysticism, because the narrator feels fear when he is visited by a mysterious raven, who often repeats the words "never again". The poem can also be said to be grotesque; there are a large number of scenes in the poem that are deeply psychologically described. The poet asks the raven questions about his beloved again, hoping that he will give him any more positive answer, except for the many times repeated "never again". However, everything that the poet felt when he saw the black bird was in him before, and the raven only helped everything to come out of it. We know nothing about how Lenora perished; the motif of losing a loved one without explaining its cause often appears in Poe's poems.
