River Of Tears

The River

Our first cover.

I was nervous and excited at the same time.

It wasnt my first time sailing through an actual river..

Vision of river rafting from last year came to mind.

We pushed the boats to the river, did boat drills, put on our life jackets and boarded.

It was so relaxing.

The wind blowing in my face as we sped through the nature. 

We got off at 4A, where I stayed on land and watched them do Croc Drills.

Apparently there were people who kept Crocs as pets.

I shuddered at the thought.

Made me wonder.

How safe is this place???

Anything could happen.

The cover started.

I watched them cross the river.

Them, wet. Me, dry.

Ok not completely haha.

The sun was inconsistent.

And I found myself drenched.

The boatmen were nice. There was the coxen, and the shooter. They said I looked like one of their past Encik. Even my smile. They kept commenting on it the whole day haha. Even told one of my Cadre, LFT R. Even he agreed immediately. 
I had no idea who they were talking about. But I guess I took it lightly and as a compliment.

After they were all done, we sailed back to 4B.

We pushed the boats back, and boarded the bus back to camp.

Finally, what an interesting experience it was.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tell me, am I being a fool again?

Why does it feel like I always am.

I always get into this situation.

It's always me on one side.

Where are you on the other?

I feel the change.

I'm tired.

Just watch me drown.

In this river of tears.

Love, Eran.

I'll set sail and drift away.

Current Song Mood: Alessia Cara - River Of Tears

Still got the flowers that you sent
And the note you wrote that said we're meant to be forever
I keep them all as evidence
In a drawer under the mirror, filled with empty promises
I don't know why
I keep letting you lie to me
Hard as I try
It seems I can't break away
I thought that you would be the hero
Come and save the day
But you're a villain
Your sins unforgiven

I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
The river of tears has washed me clean
Go 'head and wish me well
I'll cry a wishing well
I'll fly before I fail
I'll set sail and drift away
So I won't need you here
Love sinks and hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears

I catch your scent in every wind
And I recall the love we had
I can't pretend that I don't miss you
Every now and then
But the hurt is for the better
Moving on, it's now or never
Lost in the tide, I can't keep my pillows dry
Like there's a sea in my eyes
I realize that sometimes love brings you flowers
Then it builds you coffins
And far too often
We end up falling to our demise

I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
The river of tears has washed me clean
Go 'head and wish me well
I'll cry a wishing well
I'll fly before I fail
I'll set sail and drift away
So I won't need you here
Love sinks and hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears

Cry me a river, build myself a bridge
I'm over this, can't let memories become the death of me
I'm glad to see everything that you are
And I believe that you are everything I needed
But I don't need no more

I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
The river of tears has washed me clean
Go 'head and wish me well
I'll cry a wishing well
I'll fly before I fail
I'll set sail and drift away
So I won't need you here
Love sinks and hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
