Iam not good with finding what a poem is really about so can anyone me find the meaning of this one?

i think its a girl denying her love for someone else

i do not love thee

by caroline elizabeth sarah norton
i do not love thee! —no! i do not love thee!
and yet when thou art absent i am sad;
and envy even the bright blue sky above thee,
whose quiet stars may see thee and be glad.

i do not love thee! —yet, i know not why,
whate’er thou dost seems still well done, to me:
and often in my solitude i sigh
that those i do love are not more like thee!

i do not love thee! —yet, when thou art gone,
i hate the sound (though those who speak be dear)
which breaks the lingering echo of the tone
thy voice of music leaves upon my ear.

i do not love thee! —yet thy speaking eyes,
with their deep, bright, and most expressive blue,
between me and the midnight heaven arise,
oftener than any eyes i ever knew.

i know i do not love thee! yet, alas!
others will scarcely trust my candid heart;
and oft i catch them smiling as they pass,
because they see me gazing where thou art.

Excerpt from jane eyre charlotte bronte 2 i was glad of it: i never liked long walks, especially on chilly afternoons: dreadful to me was the coming home in the raw twilight, with nipped fingers and toes, and a heart saddened by the chidings of bessie, the nurse, and humbled by the consciousness of my physical inferiority to eliza, john, and georgiana reed.

If music be the food of love, play on; give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken, and so die. that strain again! it had a dying fall: o, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound, that breathes upon a bank of violets, stealing and giving odour! now read the excerpt from "the love song of j. alfred prufrock." for i have known them all already, known them all: have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons, i have measured out my life with coffee spoons; i know the voices dying with a dying fall beneath the music from a farther room. what does the phrase "dying fall" most likely mean in both excerpts
