The person above me is correct - the theme of the whole story The Tell Tale Heart, written by American Romanticist Edgar Allan Poe is definitely how a human being cannot possibly bear to hide such a terrible secret and live with so much guilt.
The narrator of the story killed a man and buried him under the floor, but he constantly kept hearing the dead man's heartbeats, which is, of course, impossible, but given that he was feeling so guilty for having murdered a person, his mind brought him to insanity.

In the poem “Afterwards,” Hardy uses figurative language, including euphemism, to develop meaning and tone. What is the meaning
Alja [10]
I read an analysis of the poem "Afterwards" by Thomas Hardy.

Euphemism is defined as the use of an indirect word or expression as a substitute of the actual word or expression that is either too harsh or blunt when referring to something embarrassing or extremely unpleasant. 

Afterwards is used as a euphemism for death. Each stanza refers to the narrator dying in a certain season or time. 1st stanza deals with dying during the month of May and spring time. 2nd Stanza deals with dying on an autumn season. 3rd stanza deals with dying on a summer night. 4th stanza deals with dying on a winter night. 5th stanza deals with the funeral of the person. 

Death is a very unpleasant topic to talk about and in the poem, it is being discussed in line with nature and its seasons. The poem uses metaphors and personification to make the subject more relatable to the readers and to enable the readers to appreciate the beauty of death without fearing it.
