The cup on the top shelf...

Me and You.
You're on the very top shelf of the kitchen cupboard.
I know you're sitting right there.
I try to reach for you, but I'm not tall enough.
I reach higher, standing on the tip of my toes but no matter how much and how hard I try, you are still out of reach.
I try to call for you, but you don't reply...it's like you're inanimate...
If I had a stool, you'd be within reach...
but.
there is no stool.
