Can anyone help me write an essay about the theme of Long way down by Jason Reynolds

hey my good buddy lemme ask are u male or female? ?

the god   the goddess of salt water, of fresh water   yet more powerful and perfect.

its hard for me to see which word is supposed to be in bold. if i knew then i would be able to better.

peace, morning, sun glooming, sorrow, woe pardon’d, punished, more hence, talk, story. all of these three words have to do something with a depressed, regretful tone. woe is another word for misery, heartache, so all of these words are about unhappy feelings.
