Drip
I am a water droplet inside your bottle.
Clinging to the neck I am transparent.
I slide down the curvature of the body,
Dreading the dispersion of myself in with the others,
Molecules of water pooled--
Your bottle’s basin.
But in the heat, I rise
Disappearing momentarily as I rise
To the top, feeling special, rising,
Hoping to be the one
To last, to hold on the longest
But I am
trapped
within your walls
Perpetually clinging, sliding, yearning, dropping, rising, falling.
