I Want To Share My Feelings And Thoughts

Now the land that I knew is a dream
And the line on the distance grows faint
So wide is my river
The horizon a sliver
The artist has run out of paint
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me,
I'm done
With my dying

Johnny Flynn & Laura Marling –The Water

I don't know if they wrote this song about grief, but in these lines I imagine that maybe what a person sees just after death goes something like this. There is heart tugging finality and yet a sense of hope and going on. Here is the song if you want to listen. I think this is beautiful but it brings the tears too.

Such lovely lyrics and there's beauty in the pure simplicity. They could have narrowed it down to 3 minutes instead though. :-)

@Magenta Thank you, it may have been just as well one verse less. It's a song I can play over and over:)💜
