Lovesick? Lovelorn?
August 17th, 2008
There is a new section at Secret Vespers, called Lovesick. It is devoted to the passionate moments and affairs you are doomed to lose forever, to the desires you can barely name. It is devoted to the crushing realization that there is nothing you can fix, that there is no way to get that feeling back, that there is a world of dreams never to come true. And that they are all beautiful.
Lovesick is a series of confessions to the Internet. Each one is posted live. Each one attempts to capture the loss or impossible fantasy of a lovesick, sleep-deprived character.
hmm.. beautiful tragedies.
and thus the confusions and anguish that ensues because of it…
what a feeling, what a phase…
i’d like to thank you for being able to carefully arrange the words to describe it..
:)
I love the new section and look forward to reading the posts over and over.
Hi… Anyone know how I can make a new post to Lovesick?
You can make comments to the posts now that you have registered and have had a comment moderated, and have proved you are a human being. Each of the posts themselves are my own writing.
I saw a few comments on one of them where the commentators riffed on the post, making their own Lovesick-like inventions. I really enjoyed that.
Thanks for being here!
I was reading through Craigslist personals recently, trying, yet again, to get a sense of the world I live in. It’s a dirty job, but someone’s got to do it.
Anyway, I find it thrilling that these installments are going to be appearing on Craigslists everywhere. I can imagine the excitement and relief world weary personals addicts like me will feel when they stumble upon them.
Making the internet a more livable place, one lovesick cyber step at a time.
Very fine writing.
The Lovesick section sends me writing, for days.
However, I’ve been forced to reread the same posts,repeatedly; when will there be new Lovesicks?
Please say soon!
It has been a while. I have a couple ones brewing, it won’t be too long now. I was just thinking about that today when I saw your comment.
