Death in the poem
1.Especially when he asked whether he
could meet his lost beloved in the heaven.With the repetition of the same word “Nevermore” 2.Everything is serene/dead except the tapping and swipper 3.the author's heart deeply fallen into sorrow

It says “Nevermore” to all his thoughts and longings. The raven, a symbol of death, tells the man he will never again ("nevermore"ain hold her–even in heaven.
Summery
It is midnight on a cold evening in December in the 1840s. In a dark and shadowy bedroom, wood burns in the fireplace as a man laments the death of Lenore, a woman he deeply loved. To occupy his mind, he reads a book of ancient stories. But a tapping noise disturbs him. When he opens the door to the bedroom, he sees nothing–only darkness.

Word Choice
As in his short stories, Poe iscareful to use primarily words that contribute to the overall atmosphere and tone of the poem. These words include weary, dreary, bleak, dying, sorrow, sad, darkness, stillness, mystery, ebony, grave, stern, lonely, grim,ghastly, and gaunt.
Analysis: There is something in the word "nevermore" that brings despair to the narrator. He believes the raven is pouring out his soul with each utterance of the word, similar to the pouring out of the narrator's soul as he longs for the return of Lenore.
The aim
1.That is, everything we loved is just
like what the raven has repeated in the poem---Once lost, they will never come back (Nevermore) 2.Express his sadness after losing his beloved 3.Arouse sympathy with readers
