The answer is A.
Trust me.

The way that an apostrophe functions when used as a literary device is as option A.

The use of apostrophe as a poetic phrase serves the following purposes:

  • to direct the reader's attention to something other than the speaker
  • to talk about absent or third parties
  • to address an inanimate object, a place, or an abstract idea.

Thus, an apostrophe can be used by an author as a literary device and not an extended punctuation.
