HERE IS YOUR ANSWER
The Canonization" is a poem by English metaphysical poet John Donne. ... The poem's title serves a dual purpose: while the speaker argues that his love will canonise him into a kind of sainthood, the poem itself functions as a canonisation of the pair of lovers.
Love is the star of the show in many of Donne's poems, and "The Canonization" is no exception. It's such a big deal to the speaker, in fact, that someone (we never find out who) has been harassing him about it. It's true that there's a case to be made here that harassment is a deserved reaction to a guy who's clearly too full of his own relationship for his own good. Though, it's also worth asking: have we really gotten to the point
against someone? More pointedly, love in this poem allows the speaker to put forward a pretty radical proposal—namely, that romantic love is just as deserving of sainthood as love of God or fellow human beings. "Where's the love for the lovers?" he seems to be asking in this poem.
