notes: poem: man+ woman good friends but they think about a relationship
dating for two years-poropsal on,
Does this catch your emotions when u try to begin a relationship to a further step?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The thing I am most confused about is "the overwhelming question". It could be almost anything. He might ask himself whether he loves a woman or not. If the poet was addressed to a woman he could have written it to confess his love to her. Since it is meant to be a romantic poet is must be something with love though.
It kind of catches my emotions even though I am not completely sure what he exactly wants to achieve with his poem. Is he trying to win the love of a woman? Or does he just want to confess his love for her? Who is the woman? A friend? A stranger? An upper or lower class woman? Questions over questions and you can only guess what it is supposed to mean...Since I can not be sure, I am not really caught by emotions. However, the way he describes things is indeed confusing, but, on the other hand, very symbolic and gives the readers kind of space how to interpret his symbols. The way of his description (for example: "the evening is spread out against the sky") do catch my emotions though.
