Hope.

So Near, Yet So Far.

"There is nothing much I can do;
I can spend my time listening to you,
Or maybe share a joke or two.

I don't mind being treated like a fool,
Just to take away your blue.

If you let me through,
I will show you that I can be true."
- Me

Isn't it weird how a person can miss another whom he hardly even knows.
How he would look around the crowd just hoping to meet her and tell himself that it's fate.
How he would spend hours thinking of the perfect poem for her.
How he would hope every time his phone shines, he sees her name.
How he would learn to play guitar songs hoping to play for her one day.
How he would walk past Kovan each weekday hoping to bump into her.
How he would love to just have a bus ride with her.

How he would beat himself each day reminding how foolish he is in doing all these.
How he would beat himself each day reminding how irritating he is.
How he would beat himself each day reminding how inferior he is.
How he would beat himself each day reminding how to live life.

How I wished that guy wasn't me.
How I wished you'd give me the opportunity to know you.
How I wish...


Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova - Falling Slowly (From the movie: ONCE)


I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react

Games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat
And point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice
You had the choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly
Eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Wounds that take me
And erase me
And I'm painted black

Well you have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you've won

Take this sinking boat
And point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice
You had the choice
You've made it now

Take this sinking boat
And point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice
You had the choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly
Sing your melody
I'll sing it loud
Loud


Peace & love,
Lewis
