"Oftentimes, love feels like a bottleneck,"
she blurted out once to her friends.
"There is only one way to find out
whether you're going to be happy
or heartbroken in the end."

"Do you want to do that?"
asked one of them.
"Hmm," quietly she pondered.
"Have I even got a choice?
Does curiosity always kill the cat?"

Wait, why is she still wondering?
Has she forgotten the last result,
which has left her feeling cold?

"Maybe you should try a few other bottles,"
another suggested.
Maybe, she silently agrees.
But, isn't the content that matters?
How does she know that it's not poisonous?

"But it's always good to read the label first before taking a sip,"
another gave a valuable tip.
But, what if the bottle weren't labeled?
What if she still had no idea
whether the content would do her more harm than good?

Now she sits and stares
at another empty bottle
right there on her lonely table.
Should she order another round
to find the cure for her avid skepticism?
