era il giorno ch'al sol si scoloraro
per la pietà del suo factore i rai,
quando ì fui preso, et non me ne guardai,
chè i bè vostr'occhi, donna, mi legaro.
tempo non mi parea da far riparo
contra colpi d'Amor: però m'andai
secur, senza sospetto; onde i miei guai
nel commune dolor s'incominciaro.
trovommi Amor del tutto disarmato
et aperta la via per gli occhi al core,
che di lagrime son fatti uscio et varco:
però al mio parer non li fu honore
ferir me de saetta in quello stato,
a voi armata non mostrar pur l'arco.
petrarca, xiv century
(hope it's correct, cuz if it wasnt for the translation, i wouldnt get a word... well, maybe except for One )

Disarmato... disarmed, defenseless. Indeed is what happened to me, what remains of me...
You know, there was a time I prayed on Petrarca's tomb, a great marble stone of the dead, in the middle of a small medieval town:

I always admired his spiritual loving for Laura, and Dante's inspiration for Beatrice. I tried all my life to believe in that kind of ideal. But fate fooled me, and life stroke deep in my weak spirit...

well, after what you have told me, this seemed to fit your feelings... if i may be so bold to try to name them...
and indeed, his passionate love for laura, the source of such blisfull lines, must've been exceptional...
as for beatrice...
che volt' è per paura
e temo che non sia già sì smarrito
ch'io mi sia tordi al soccorso levata
per quell ch'i' ho di lui nel cielo udito
or movi, e con la tua parola ornate
e con ciò c'ha mestieri al suo campare
l'aivuta si ch'i' ne sia consolata
l'son Beatrice che ti faccio andare
vegno del loco ove tornar disio
amor ine mosse, che mi fa parlare...
(sorry for the ignorance... but i guess medieval italian differs from modern, so excuse me if this is out of place here :/)
p.s. hope your spirit regains its strangth some day!

You can name anything you want, you know dear. And yes, medieval Italian is quiet different from today
I hope too, thank you.
Perhaps that spirit is starting to pulse again with the same harmony, the same hidden strength of the old days, when anyone could see in me a "knight of the round" for sure
Everything is destined to go where it comes from, every fall can only remind me of who I was before I fell and let me be the real me. And that's all I can do to let her comprehend, every month, every year, the feelings I protected, I grew waiting for her all my life...

Not so for me.
I choose that tomb and lyrics for the deepest wound of mine. I guess it's the last I can bear. I don't wanna love anymore, time to learn to be a bastard like all of those scrubs around. She is not to blame, only I am, but how I deeply suffered from what I've lost no one could ever understand...

What would you think if it's instead a never ending present of doom? If I'd tell you that the true Love of mine is alive, I've found it, I've fought waiting only for it all this time... and cannot be for me, not now, nor even known if it shall ever be?
I love her... I've always did, and I will.
I'm seriously starting to think it's something related to "other" pasts, or kind of voices I've never believed in, I swear.
But God! Too hate has grown in me, too much loneliness, too wounds, too many years... alone, refusing to live for that kind of love, refusing to live at all, save for those happy, stupid moments when I traveled across human boundaries, in a world I dreamed, in a world where she always was since I was born...
One life isn't enough to find love, one life is enough to find out we are only leaves and dust... as our wishes.
I was already lost, dear friend, many years ago. Last hope died on August the 22nd, 2007. I reached the bottom and I can assure you I called for it with His proper name... if this could only help me...

My Friend, you don´t have to give up, never! You both!
Where is she? Why can´t you stay with her? Don´t stop to fight for your Love my friend, no matter if you are tired, just don´t stop to fight and everything will be alright one day....

Oh little kind Dragonfly, how I'd be granted to anyone beyond this world of mortal if only my story could be so simple. I've been always a fighter for Love, I never gave up, even when refused, even if it costs me a lot, but this time is different. Unfortunately she loves another man, maybe she never loved me as she said, and asked me to be friend. But shall I have the indifference to defeat the dream of all dreams I had, to renounce to the light I never felt before, to live without her? Anyone would argue "it shall come another one"... if only I wasn't sure she is the One.

But if not the brightest light."
