Stargazing

We traced the constellations

(Or what we imagined we saw)

Gods’ fingernail and shooting stars

(You said to make a wish)

We laid uncomfortably on crab grass

(It felt like little needles in the back)

On a cool August night

(We had so much to drink)

Looking towards space

(Stargazing)

And dreaming of something better

(For the both of us)
