ndslotesse's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Princess Bride Dear Diary, I feel really relaxed right now. Which is pretty suprising 'cause usually I'm always worried or thinking. My mind never stops thinking, I'm always thinking about the strangest things. But, that's what happens to people who have to much time on their hands. Like me! heh, yeah like me. Last night, I cried my eyes out. It was bogus. *definition of bogus: unreal.* I kept replaying this one scene in The Princess Bride. Buttercup: You can die slowly cut into a thousands pieces. Wesley: Tsk tsk tsk, hardly complimentary, your highness. Why lose your venom on me? Buttercup: You killed my love... Wesley: It's possible, I kill a lot of people. Who was this love of yours? Another prince like this one? Ugly? Rich? Scabby? Buttercup: No a farmboy. Poor. Poor and Perfect. With eyes like the sea after a storm. On the high seas your ship attacked and the Dread Pirate Roberts never takes prisioner. Wesley: I can't afford to make acceptions... Buttercup: You mock my pain! Wesley: Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something. I remember this farmboy of yours, I Think. This would be what? Five years ago? Does it bother you to hear him? Buttercup: Nothing you can say will upset me Wesley: He died well, that should please you. No bribe attempts or blubbering. He simply said please, please I need to live. It was the please that caught my memory. I asked him what was so important for him. True love, he replied. And then he spoke of a girl of surpassing beauty and faithfullness. I can only assume he meant you. You should bless me for destroying him before he found out what you really are. Buttercup: And what am I?! Wesley: Faithfullness he talked of, madame. Your enduring faithfullness. Now tell me truely, when you found out that he was gone, did you wait get engaged to your prince at the same hour or did you wait a whole week at of the respect of the dead? Buttecup: You mocked me once, never do it again. I DIED THAT DAY! Wesley: As you wish. Geeze, it made me cry like no other. I don't know why, I felt sorrow whenever I watched it but I never cried. Dear God, it made me cry, like I haven't cried in a long time. My eyes are still puffy and swollen. It made my heartache, though I don't know why. The strange part is the fact that I haven't cried in a long time, I don't cry. It's just something that's happened to me. But, when I watched that scene *for about 30 time, no joke* I cried like no other. It felt strange and suprising good. It filled a gap in my heart and then created a new one. I guess I haven't improved at all since watching that. I still have an emptiness within me. With care, 1:51 p.m. - 2002-04-01 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
