you took my soul you wiped it clean

After you had left, the most amazing thing happened. I went down again. I was walking past the place you told me you like colourful boats.
All the streetlamps on the road died for three minutes. It looked incredible. Two million more stars just.. popping up out of nowhere. For three whole minutes. The whole world stood still. The traffic stopped and the noise stopped and my iPod was playing the exact song for the moment and it was just. Beautiful.
