I remember the dark and painfully beautiful sky.

The sense of wonder and mysticism.

I remember the smell of high-end perfume and innocence.

I remember the looks of awe,

Everything had lead to this.

I remember the starring.

The questioning.

The “are you okay?”’s and the

“Is everything fine?”’s.

I remember vaguely,

The flashes and blurs.

The loud and heavy music.

The tables

The dancing

The laughing

The joy

The excitement, the nervousness.

The feeling of pleasure and displeasure.

Being scared yet calm.

Everything seemed so perfect

So imperfect.

I remember the faces

The expressions,

The taste in my mouth: bitter and sweet

confusion everywhere.

A night had never been so special. So memorable.

Unforgettable.

It had been everything I had been waiting for

everything we had been waiting for.

I remember everything

yet nothing at all.
