Evelyn Stein - And The Flowers Were Gray

[AbstraktVisaj]

I feel like the music is in the perspective of someone reminiscing good memories with someone they loved but has since passed away.

There are moments with a sense of subdued energy, and those are the happy moments before it returns to the melancholy tedium of them sitting alone at home.

This song, along with its title, makes me think that flowers are like memories that we look back at. Every time we remember them and play the scenes in our heads, it's like they're growing slowly until they bloom and we see the memory in its full.

But with someone looking back at past memories with someone whom they've loved and passed away, the flowers keep blooming but there is no color to them no matter how many times you remember them.

The days we’d spend playing cards in the sitting room, eating candy and laughing at squirrels out the window.

The day she gave me the flower and told me to let go. When she would hum on her way to bed at night and smell of fresh coffee in the morning.

When she’d sweep my hair back behind my ear and rest her finger on my chin. She’d tell me I was the most beautiful girl she knew.

To this day, I can hear her laugh. The rest has faded but that has stayed. Grief is a destructive thing. What I’d give for one more day.

These kinds of pieces make me want to write something, a poem, a composition, a novel etc.

I'm not the best mind set right now but, this type of music seems to be healing me just a little temporarily

[asoulscondition]

I really hope I free myself from this mindset and become new, and better new.

We all in the comment section could meet and tell each other how we felt and what stories we created in our minds while listening to this ....we all would grab few drinks ...oh how nice would be ....

A quiet contemplation, of 2 lovers, eye to eye, the most important part of their eternal 💓

I love her but I'm afraid to. This piece is my feelings personified in the form of vibrations.

[bakersmileyface]

This song makes me feel lonely and melancholic

[angelnunn]

Some how i have a nostalgic feeling with this piece but I'm not sure we're I've heard it before. It's kinda sad cause it reminds me of good memories that Im not even sure I had now that I think about it but it's a beautiful at the same time tho

[GabeVarns]

[zazathieltm]

I do not know where they are going, my thoughts when I listen, but it's a nice feeling.

Thanks :)

I read it, “And the flowers were gay.” I’m not sure what’s better, that or this.

Sorry that i dont have any poems or writed something to put but i like to imagine this song like a static image that show a moment in time, a innocent time witch is now gray because it was a long time ago lived.

[asoulscondition]

I don't like where I am at all, I hate being in this mindset of unhappiness, and living day to day with no purpose. universe please help me out. I feel alone. and I'm sad a lot of the time. I need guidance, and I'm tired of going through loosing people and feeling unwanted.

[coldplaysucks]

[absolutebad]
