Last Night of Summer
sittin’ in the sea of comfortability
waftin’ in the waves of familiarity
it’s the mary jane
that got me feelin’ so beautifully
headin’ out to see that orange disguise
created by the moon and the sunrise
so many clouds masquerade the stars
from my blue eyes
draggin’ on my cigarette
my hair still a little wet
chattin’ about space
and all its mystery
explorin’ possibilities of
what’s actually out there
who’s lookin’ down here
makin’ our heads spin
with just normal conversation
stars start to peak out
hidin’ amongst the trees
the smokin’ time has come and gone
just like the light breeze
admire the scene just a little more
before we go back inside
and close the door
back to the sea
and away from the sky
