I was alive, drunk on enjoyment. Drums beat along with my racing heart, they beat with so much passion and honesty it absorbed into my wilting soul, the night sky glowed brighter than the sun as the stars and moon rejoiced along with the people, they danced, each and everyone of them, from the young to the old. They all danced around the large roaring fire with grins on their faces and rhythm in their cores. Feet tapping, hands clapping and drums pounding, it rocked the earth and swayed the barrier of trees surrounding the unknown village. Fireflies hovered around like hundreds of tiny lanterns making that bridge between what I've known all my life and what I've grown to believe was only a fairy tale.
