people tell me not to bottle it up

but I find it quite enjoyable

I like to take the puddles of pain

cap them down

and tie strings to the lips of each colored glass capsules

I want to tie them to each branch of memory

and I want to tell you why

why I want to keep them

Bottles are beautiful in the light

the glistening colors

the shining pools of light

One day i will find that sunlight

I will dig it from underneath my skin and bones

and maybe one day I'll see the beauty

because like they all say

beauty is pain
