...I'm not quite sure I get what this poem is saying? Maybe it's really simple and I am--yet again--not being the brightest crayon in the box...but I've read it three times now and I don't get it?

A truely gifted poet you are, my dear friend. I salute you!
Wow... It's really quite sad to me. I mean, it's a delicate description, but it leaves the reader's heart feeling void like that bottle. Something that should have been there, that wasn't quite there. Something that made one hope and then when that hope is shattered, there's nothing left.
