we danced the night away like foolish children
you lost your shoes crowd surfing
but you sang and laughed like it was nothing
they'd come back eventually
they always do
the heat choked us until our heads spun
it was sickening and exhilirating
and it made us feel so alive
we stayed close by choice
as often as we were forced
without thinking, i reached for you
you became something to me
through our sarcasm
to the side of our individualistic power
we became friends
the crowd, roaring, screaming
unintentionally made an attempt
to separate us in the chaos
