i'm drunk on dark skies
filled with stars
the champagne bottle's empty
and my eyes are closed
i feel the wind on my neck
my scarf is in a heap at my feet
i wish i could drink some more
to smother the rising storm
inside me
the darker sky beckons
and the star twinkle
i open my eyes and drink in
the night full of stars
