You have drained me.

I gave you your cup
As is required
Expected
Of everyone.

I poured you your wine
It wasn't the best.
Who pours his best wine
For a stranger anyway?

But it was wine
And it was good
And it sustained you.

And you came to visit
Whenever you needed to.
All I wanted
Was your gratitude
But it was never there.

Now the bottle
Is empty.
You are finished.
Done.

There will be no more wine for you.
You have drained your cup.

You have drained me.
