Lunatic Thoughts II

when nights
were too
     beautiful
i had to get drunk
so the words
     would fit
            the mood
        or the mood
    was reduced
each time
        convinced
  I'd made it better
     or if
  it'd been worse
         I couldn't
            remember
I thought:
    get juiced
       and the night
    lasts forever
but the future
     has a way
  of catching up
               to you
