Life in a Bottle

Life in a Bottle

Once I thought that I would live life in a bottle

When people looked in they could see me, a smile plastered on my face

I could see and hear them, yet I could not feel the warmth of their emotions

So the plastered smile and pasted on happiness remained, while inside my

bottle I was alone and sad

Then one day, I realized that someone was with me all along in my bottle

I didn't realize that he was here all along because he quietly sat in a

corner, feeling the same isolation I did

Yet somehow, in all our loneliness we found each other...

Still separated, yet joined together like never before

He is my reflection and I am his...

In his voice I hear all the sincerity I thought no longer existed...

I long to hold him in my arms but I know I must bide my time...

Til then my thoughts, my heart, my soul are with you...
