The First Time I Saw Stars

The first time I saw the stars,

It was summer.

Sticky and hot,

Our skin was tinged red,

After being kissed by the sun.

So we waved it goodbye as 

it sank down into the lake,

And the fire was started and soon

Flames touched the sky. 

You offered me a drink,

So I said yes,

And I tasted and 

promptly spit it out.

You laughed and your eyes sparkled

And you said,

Haven’t you tried it before?

So I lied and said yes

and drank some more.

And soon I saw stars,

beautiful bright stars,

and the room was spinning like

Suddenly I was on top of the world.
