Memories by Danni
Back then I always knew. That one of us would leave the other one alone. But I didn't think it would be you. I hoped to have a long time with you. And I surely had. Everyday I walk into my garden at my house and I look at the city. Yea I'm still here. Here where it all began. Here in the city in the desert. Here where we first met. Here where we have been friends for so long. Where we had so much fun. Watching the city, the lights. Not much changed since you first arrived here. Yea lights on the strip went out. And new ones went on. Dreams shattered and memories broke. But some came true and last for ever. I don't know why but since this city exists people come and go. With dreams, with hope, with money. And joy and luck. With fiancés and leave with husbands and wives. It still is just a nowhere in a desert. Just the thing that gambling is legal and marriage a split-second-thought decision. To win or to lose? It's just a moment but changing everything. And for the time you are here it feels like you borrowed an angel's wings.
