The Bottle Has Stopped

It has been six months now since we last met

And I no longer think of you as I once did.

To play together, to hide together, to dream together are

Thoughts that no longer dominate my mind

I am free.

I once embraced you as if we were one,

Partners for life in a never ending hug.

Now I realise that to do so,

Would not be an embrace,

But a choke

A choke I no longer want to feel

A choke I no longer want to enjoy

A choke I no longer want.

Goodbye by one time friend,

Goodbye by lifetime nemesis!

I am free
