Like A River Lyrics Novels & Stories

I know what you're thinking and yes, I chose it for my name, but also because I love the beat and the lyrics to this song.

River asks “You just have to imagine a wall or something solid to stop your thoughts from being heard” Realm tells her. River tries to think of a wall and imagines the one that surrounds her house. “Okay done!” she says. She hears something that sounds very close to a laugh from Realm. “Solid!

As the group started rummaging through their packs for supplies, ideas bouncing around like snowflakes in a snowstorm, I felt an inexplicable pull toward the river. My heart hammered as I moved closer to the water's edge, kneeling to listen intently to its roar. There was something more than just raw power in this river—something haunting. I closed my eyes, shutting out the frantic rustle of my friends, and focused on the whispers carried by the wind.

I snort softly. “Most people are disasters.” “So are you.” “Well yeah, but I’m my disaster.” His hand lifts, thumb brushing beneath my eye and comes away wet. I hadn’t even realised tears were sliding down my face. “Oh, come on,” I whisper shakily. “What is wrong with me lately?” River’s expression softens with understanding. He shifts closer until our knees press together on the blanket. Then he cups the side of my face gently and pulls me toward him until

But suddenly. “Mommy, Daddy.” A cry from a little girl echoes right in front of him and from the other end of the bridge. The night that is deep and quiet makes the crying echoes. The burning cars in front of them and the smell of intoxicating burns are raising. He stops crying, now pitying the little girl that just got his attention. He turns his gaze in front and saw the little one dressed in red, full of wounds, and crying hard. Her cheeks are red from crying and her nose seems to swell because of the same reason.

Waiting in terror Loathefiya was a sleep, when she woke up feeling soaking in her foot, in terror she screamed and climbed upper to the door. The water level had raisen to the steps, soaking Loathefiya's feet in it. She was horrified to view the black liquid floating inside the dark room.

Elara’s POV The river’s surface shimmered under the pale light of the moon, a silvery path stretching into the unknown. The gentle flow of the water should have been comforting, but tonight, it was just a cruel reminder of the chaos inside me.
