If I had a thought in my head,
I would bottle it up, with a cork
And wax, and drop it in the river.
It would wind its way to the sea,
Where on the morning shore,
It would find you.

Would you open the bottle,
Or leave it sealed? Would
You want to know what my
Last living thought was?
Would it hurt you?

If you opened it I doubt
That you would be happy.
But if it was left closed,
It would eat away at you.
I do that to you.

Could you?
Would you?
A little thing I wrote whilst on holiday, I was feeling emotional and weepy so I thought I'd write something to let it all out and this was what happened. Enjoy.

Make the second "You" lowercase in the title. Good poem.
