In this question, you are asked to write an essay. We are unable to help you with the whole essay, as this is a personal task that only you can do. However, we can look at three Modernists poems that deal with the themes of loss and isolation.

The first example is that of “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” by T.S. Eliot. In this poem, the speaker, J. Alfred Prufrock, is a moody man who thinks deeply, yet is very isolated and unhappy. Prufrock feels upset at the many unfulfilled goals that he had in life. He feels he has lost his youth and his time, as evidenced by this passage:

And indeed there will be time

To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”

Time to turn back and descend the stair,

With a bald spot in the middle of my hair —

(They will say: “How his hair is growing thin!”)

Another Modernist poem that deals with this subject is "The Wasteland" by T.S. Eliot. In this poem, the author also talks about the passage of time, and how time of lost to people. He has a deep sense of nostalgia and regret about this loss, which is identified as "memory":

April is the cruellest month, breeding

Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

Memory and desire, stirring

Dull roots with spring rain.

Finally, the poem "In a Station of the Metro" by Ezra Pound establishes a distance between the speaker and the rest of the people he encounters in a station. In fact, these people are only described as "faces in the crowd," enhancing the feeling of distance between the people and the speaker, and thus, the sense of isolation:

The apparition of these faces in the crowd:

Petals on a wet, black bough.

explanation:
