I have drunk the cup, I am full.

I have tasted it, and I am not ready to buy a full bottle.

If I bought it again, should I keep it on the shelf as most do?

or will I drink from it every day?

I once bought and all are finished

They were small bottles.

I thought I purchased a barrel’s worth

I was wrong. Some were only a sip

and the remaining stayed on the shelf.

The shelf had more of it than I did

I tried to open the bottle, but it needed two. And I am not strong enough.

not for both of us

the bottles stayed on the shelf until they were knocked down.

I tried to pick up the pieces, but it was spilled everywhere

and the glass shattered beyond repair

So, I bought a bottle for myself and it pours every day

but I cannot afford to buy one for both of us.

I am not strong enough.

I need you to pour one for yourself too

for the bottles from the past are all broke

except the one I bought for my own.
