The indefinable smell that caressed the room - a perfume, though mayhap more of a cologne - brought forth such a crashing wave of heavy nostalgia. Such a crashing indeed, as I had never experienced such force behind a vague emotion like this one. It was nostalgia for things that had been, and yet, had never. Almost as if I were desiring something that does not exist in this world, but in fact, is real. And if not in this world, than at least another. And the emotions that it tugged to surface…it made me want to weep uncontrollably…both with heavy sorrow, and great joy.
