Poe moved away from his foster parents because his foster dad broke off his engagement to his Richmond sweetheart not because he asked to borrow money if you knew wut you were talkin about you should have had enough common sense to look on the biography on this website before u answered

Well first of all to get your facts straight, his brother left him with alone Mr. Allan and didn't die. And it's told that in Poe's late teens he either left Mr. Allan or Mr. Allan kicked him out. He started drinking in his teens (if it's correct that Mr. Allan did kick him out, it was probably because of his drinking). When he married Virginia who was only 14 at the time and was his cousin (seriouly it was his cousin) he loved her so much that he gave up drinking. When she got sick with a disease in the heart he stayed by her bedside nursing her for almost a year. After she died he had lost 4 women that he had loved very dearly. He wrote the poem Anabell Lee after she died but no one knows why it wasn't named after her (and he did write it for her). After she died he drunk so heavly that he would blackout for days at a time. When he died he had been found in a ditch stripped naked and beaten. Well that's all I know. Bye!
