"Out to sea.
Out to sea.
And in the weightlessness of the deep,
where dreams are fulfilled,
Two wills come together to fulfill a wish,
Your gaze and my gaze
like an echo repeating wordlessly,
Farther out, farther out,
Beyond the other side of everything,
through blood and bones.
But I always wake up
and I always want to be dead,
Your hair forever caressing my lips."

Ramón Sampedro (Javier Bardem) in The Sea Inside

Funeral Blues


"Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crêpe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good."

W. H. Auden (used in the film Four Weddings And A Funeral)
