IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING
We were excited for the first time in years. I was genuinely happy but I knew it wouldn't last long. It never does. We planned everything the weeks before.
Wake up at 5:30 get ready. Do my makeup and hair. Put my outfit on. Leave at 09:00 to be at the Stadium at 09:30 queueing for the Eras Tour. We even packed everything that we would take the day before. For a minute we thought we had it all. We survived the great (tickets) war.

While making my last friendship bracelets the news hit us the Vienna shows were cancelled. In disbelief and panic we texted each other to check if it's true and how everyone is holding up.
In the end we lost it all. It was from pure happiness to so long Taylor and I wish I can un-recall how we almost had it all. Dancing Phantoms on the terrace are they second-hand embarrassed that I can't get out of bed? Cause something counterfeits dead.
Should've let it stay buried. And now say it once again with feeling how the death rattle breathing, silenced as the soul was leaving. The deflation of our dreaming leaving me bereft and reeling My (dreams) ghost and me sitting in a tree
And it raises the question how did it end? I want to scream and cry but I can't at that moment I felt like I was suffocating. I was excited. We were excited for a fleeting moment. No one was overthinking just pure euphoria and now it felt like time stood still and we watched it all fall apart brick by brick.
The city of Vienna tried to cheer us up. We got free goodies and it was sweet and kind but it doesn't bring back the experience that was stolen from us. The experience someone wanted to destroy for us. In my opinion the cancellation was the best choice to protect us and swiftites but now we are going through the 4 stages of Grief.
I know there are 5 stages of grief but I don't think I'll ever be ready to accept that someone woke up one day and decided to rob us of the safest place on earth of the most magical enchanting experience of our lives.
I hope everyone is safe and trying their best to heal. If you want to trade braclets Corneliusgasse in the 6th District has a tree where you can leave some bracelets and take some.
Most of all I hope @taylorswift and @taylornation are doing alright. I hope Taylor's team is okay.
Stay safe and try to enjoy your stay in Vienna. It's a beautiful city.
How are you doing ?
