Do You Remember When We Danced?
There were lights above our heads; in colors of the rainbow and wild like falling stars. People were all around us; hot, sweating bodies, gliding to the rhythm of the deafening music. There was heat all around us, and energy spreading from the floor up to the flashing ceiling, swallowing everything in an impenetrateable haze.
I don’t recall anything of that, anything but you.
You, the evil, tousy Sunshine, were back in my arms and everything felt suddenly so right.
You’ve changed a lot. We both have, but you were shining. Your self-confidence has made you more beautiful, even more luscious and you were the one. Not my sweet, innocent Sunshine anymore, but the real King of Babylon, even though your reign might have ended some time ago. I’m certain that everybody wanted you that night. Everyone was starring only at you.
Or was it only me who saw you this way? Only me who felt like drinking from the Fountain of Youth and who could feel the new life running through my veins? If this is true, I’d be the only one who could understand what it was like to be wrapped in you and sinking. I’ve been drowning in you and for the first time I wasn’t scared I’d drown. I knew you were there to save me. You’ve always been, no matter how hard I tried to push you away.
I still don’t understand why you came back. I have nothing to offer to you, nothing but me - the imperfection itself. Yet you keep coming back and for some unknown, but probably good reason, I hope you’ll never stop.
