St. Charles Bridge

A night I'll never forget.

I close my eyes

breathe // a white glow

flickering lanterns dream,

my hands placed against the cool stone wall

cheeks pink with a rising heat,

a bottle of Prosecco pressed against my lips

bubbly laughter of friends dancing

the pounding of sore feet, beating hearts

into the earth, our voices bound a spell

enchanted, glistening eyes reflecting the stars

secrets hidden in vulnerable magic,

Hands entwined, grasping to hold onto a moment

Yearning to slow down time, we dissolved

Left behind, only a memory.
