We’re all just a mess of broken cups, waiting to be forced back together
Because a broken cup is worthless
So I’m worthless and you’re worthless and that’s all we can ever be so instead we sit in our China cabinet prison
Waiting
For no one because if we’re all broken, there is no one to fix us
I often laugh to myself when people tell me they’re not insecure
For I can see it leaking from the cracks in their cup, and the second I learned how to pick my broken cup from the cabinet floor and glue it back together with care
They want to drink from it
They want the continents that I worked so hard to get because
They can’t do it themselves
So instead, they seek gratitude or compliments, which are really shallow digs little do they know my tea will do them no good.
It would be like replacing wine with water and claiming to still be
DRUNK
My cup is not yours to drink from no matter how many cracks yours acquires my tea will do you no good
But my glue now that you can use
So take it find how to fix your cup, so it can be properly filled for you can’t find yourself at the bottom of an
Empty Cup
