My mind is trained to hear We Found Love and think of this one cabin weekend my sophomore year of college. I have these images in my head. Wooden table. My gray sweater and jeans. Ellie. Greg. Grace. Meeting Cady for the first time ever. Numerous drinks. Pictures. Standing on furniture. Dancing with plush fish. Sleeping on suitcases. Feeling infinitely young. Our friendship everlasting. Hearing this in the car for the first time in ages brings the biggest and best love-lump (I can't describe it any better than that) in my throat. The kind that makes it hard to breath because you instantly think of the happiest times with some of the most important people in your life. Ohhh my God, thank you for these memories. Please, don't ever let this feeling leave me.
Yellow diamonds in the light
as we're standing side by side.
As your shadow crosses mine
what it takes to feel alive.
