Shakespeare's emotions in this sonnet and more specifically through this line is of sadness and depression, where he talks about how sad and lonely he feels and how he has this feeling of self-pity and sorrow,he also mentions using the word men's eyes that he feels whos people around are indifferent to his pain in spite of his evident sadness.
