Estuary

An estuary is a partly enclosed coastal body of brackish water with one or more rivers or streams flowing into it, and with a free connection to the open sea.

Estuaries form a transition zone between river environments and maritime environments. They are subject both to marine influences—such as tides, waves, and the influx of saline water—and to riverine influences—such as flows of fresh water and sediment. The inflows of both sea water and fresh water provide high levels of nutrients both in the water column and in sediment, making estuaries among the most productive natural habitats in the world.

Most existing estuaries formed during the Holocene epoch with the flooding of river-eroded or glacially scoured valleys when the sea level began to rise about 10,000–12,000 years ago. Estuaries are typically classified according to their geomorphological features or to water-circulation patterns. They can have many different names, such as bays, harbors, lagoons, inlets, or sounds, although some of these water bodies do not strictly meet the above definition of an estuary and may be fully saline.

Estuary

Why did I had to leave
Why did I had to tear down
The walls we created
Please, goddamn tell me why
A amtter of life and death
It appeared to be back then
When we said goodbye
Oh God, take me back
Long forgotten words
Our first kiss
Didn't think I could remember them
But it all comes back
Back, back in my mind
A moment of total silence
Then a short last kiss
A kiss of death
Cos I haven't lived since
Long forgotten words
Our first kiss
Didn't think I could remember them
But it all comes back
Back, back in time
I jumped in my car
And rode of blind
I could imagine her
Staying behind
With only one thing
