Fish in a bottle

You've caught me, trapped me.

You've hemmed me in, enclosed by your vessel.

I cannot move, I cannot breathe.

Suffocated by your words, tangled in your eyes.

I am as a fish, trapped in your bottle.

You shake me, you break me. 

I can never leave your gaze.

You're a bully to me, but I broke free.

Dare to trap me and I'll break you.

Because I cannot relate to you.

Your bottle cannot hold me.

Your words will never drown me.

The tables have turned.

Mate, you're my fish in a bottle.
