A Bottle's Beginning And Ending

I’m not a bottle,

Until the day I met you.

I’m not a bottle,

Until the day I wanted to be.

I’m willing to be a bottle,

And I hope naively,

You can be my owner.

I masqueraded in front of you.

I lied to you.

I lied to myself.

When I realized you never took me as a bottle,

I told myself, I can’t ever be a bottle,

Because I can never be your bottle.

I stopped missing you.

I stopped my spinning world.

I stopped my time and space.

I stopped pilfering your little bits.

I stopped everything, stopped being naïve, stopped being childish, stopped being a bottle.
