I remember the last time,
I felt like I was flying.
Do you remember?
In that club on High Street,
with too many shadows,
and too little sincerity.
That time
that song came on,
the one that had suddenly convinced us
that everything could be beautiful
that for three minutes and thirty six seconds,
everything could really be this easy.
Life could be this simple.
We could own the night,
our destiny,
the rest of time and space as we knew it.
That song,
had somehow
negated the existence of anything
outside those florescent walls,
a world where we were merely human,
because to the sound of that bassline,
we had become gods.
Do you remember,
how I looked at you,
and smiled,
as you threw me onto your shoulders,
and I threw my hands into the air,
as the world turned faster and slower
all at once.
That night,
for that song,
in those three minutes and thirty six seconds,
if never again,
in that club on High Street,
I was flying.
And I was infinite.
