The clock hits 5am
Im laying here looking at the glass next to me
its half full of the soda i have been drinking
this makes me think that maybe
there is more of a meaning to this saying
maybe that glass is me
half full and half empty
19 years YOUNG and living my dream
full of life with so much to strive for
full of passion and goals
full of ambition to be great in my future
full of thoughts and hope
full of wonder of life
19 years OLD and fighting
Empty from things that destroyed me
empty from people dragging me down
empty from people telling me i can’t
empty from trying so hard to just fail
empty from loosing what was important to me
The scaary part about being this glass
is that you never know when you might tip
spilling the remaining full you have
and becoming completely empty
But I’m still sitting here alive
half full and half empty
looking for that thing in life
that will take me as this glass
and take me for the full part
and accept me for the empty parts
sitting here thinking of the girl
who wants me for this glass i am
who wants to love the reasons I’m full
and take away the empty and fill it again
So won’t you take me
for this glass i am?
