Tired...god, I'm tired.

Even so....I dearly wish to see her. To speak to her. To rest my head against her, and hear about her day....

I'm way too much of a sap...but it's how I feel.

*laughs* There's nothing wrong with being a sap, my friend. :)

A lot of people look at the idea of a Petrarchan conceit as if it's a bad thing. And by a Petrarchan conceit, I mean that poetic hyperbole that was made famous by...well...Petrarch.

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" That's an example. "Thou art more lovely and more temperate."

Various people think that such conceits are unrealistic and simply overly prettified language that has no relation to the truth.

Personally, however, when I say "The sun shines from behind your eyes, / and the wind wishes that he could caress your soft soft skin," I *believe* what I say. In my world, the sun does shine literally from behind her eyes (whoever she is), sparkling through crystaline blue lenses. Or, it might as well for the effect her eyes have on me.

So, my point is...you aren't really a sap if that's how you truly feel. People chain their hearts over much, and are afraid to give voice to the tempest that stirs their being.

Or at least, that's what I think. Mind you, I was just lamenting how a woman I thought was attractive and a gamer was already taken, so it's not like *I'm* having all that much luck. ;) Take my words as you will.

To be honest, I'm the same way in a lot of respects...I just don't ever want her to feel that I'm speaking cliches, or to sound obsessed or over absorbed...but I do care deeply about her.
