Some films are just special. Not for the quality of filming, not for the quality of acting, but for the message they send out. This morning I was lucky enough to see Once which I was very impressed by. The two main characters “Guy” and “Girl” were played by real life lovers and musicians Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, and the story is so similar to how life could be for me, that I hope that when everything falls together, that it at least happens the way this film does

…I don’t know you, but I want you, all the more for that…

One thing it made me realise was that I don’t have the ability to make music like that, I’m not technically good enough to write that, but its good that I know that, because now I can go on and improve myself in time for the night when the stars will leave the sky.

…”I cant wait forever”, is all that you said, before you stood up, you won’t disappoint me, I can do that myself, but I’m glad that you’ve come, but if you don’t mind leaving, leave, and free yourself at the same time, leave, leave, I understand, you’ve already gone…

I walked down the woods and saw my life in a paper boat flying down the river, sailing into the unknown and I wondered to myself, am I alone on that boat or is there someone by my side. It’s so beautiful down there, you’d love it.

…And if you have something to say, you better say it now, cuz this is what you’ve waited for, a chance to even up the score, and as these shadows fall on me, I will somehow, say it back to you…
