Love is a broken bottle

It fell to the ground
Shattered in a thousand pieces
The dreams they spoke of are nothing
But dreams

Innocents on their youth
Will believe it is forever
Amateur writers
Typewrite it in poetry

Until one day or another  
Reality hits you 
First punch 
One man down

But the fallen refuses to stay in the ground
Taught never to give up
The knight straights himself up
Back to his feet  
He will rise from the shadows to fight once more  

And then, he continues
Like nothing ever happened
Now it is ok
Everything will be fin…

Ouch!
Right in the stomach
Again to the ground

Still
He abnegates quitting
Goes back again
Rises from his grave

Up and down
Up
and
down

Rises one more time

Just
to
fall

He dreams he will be the winner someday
So wrong he is
Reality is a bitch

Love is a broken bottle 
Broken again 
And again
Shattered into a million pieces
Until the glass becomes
Dust 

Like a tree during autumn
Wind hits it again
And again
Until all the leaves are on the ground
Nothing remains

The hope fades out
Day becomes night 
What happened?
What always happens
Over and over again

Love is a broken bottle
Crushed, fractured, pulverized
Smashed to smithereens
Damaged so many times
Until its glass became unrecognizable
Dust

And you cannot tell anymore

What is bottle
and what is dust
What is love
and what is
Whatever remained
In your pile of ashes

Then rise as phoenix
and try again

Love
Love is a broken bottle

That is probably why
I cannot ever have enough vodka

The bottle is broken
