You're kept in a jar on my table.
I punched holes in the lid
so you can breathe
and dripped a little drop of wine
so you can drink.
I ******* the lid on lightly
so if you ever wish
to fly away,
go ahead.
But you'd leave me here
all alone
with nothing in my jar.
Nothing on my table.
Nothing breathing
through the holes I punched
into the lid.
Nothing drinking
the drop of wine
I dripped.
