In Sonnet 130 the speaker tells the reader that what his mistress look likes. At the beginning in lines 1-12 the reader pictures the speakers mistress as an ugly lady. In lines 13 and 14 the speaker states that no one can be as beautiful or bright as these things that he lists. In the first line he says, "My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun." The speaker is telling the reader that there is not such thing as all these things that you can find in women. Their eyes cannot be as bright as the sun. Their lips also cannot be more red than coral. The speaker is saying a person can still be beautiful if these things do not pertain to a woman.
I agree with the theme of this sonnet. Women and men cannot have eyes or lips of things, except what they truly are. In poems speakers often portray their lover by saying they are more beautiful than an object. Sometimes this makes women and some men think of themselves in a way that they do not look like. Which often makes them not like the way they look. So they try to change it and do not stop until they are satisfied. The reality is though, that men still think women are just as beautiful without having those things. Men just do not always know how to express those feelings towards their lovers.
