Confetti
By Ruby Q
Crinkled yellow paper,
Threatening to break at touch.
Memories of a great night,
In a 5x2cm rectangle of paper
Badly printed,
Like the millions of others made at the same time.
But still, it is special.
It is the most well-cared for piece of confetti in the world,
Kept in my phone case,
Protected from the elements,
But still, I can touch it whenever I want.
You may ask,
Why am I so attached to a piece of paper?
The answer is simple.
It holds the memory of the best night of my life.
