#halffull
Your words were diamonds,
glimmering with hope,
before they cut
jagged and sharp.
I’ve been shattered,
ever since you sunk in,
hapazardly slapping shiny patches
over the hard scratches.
I am mended for a time,
glass half full,
until one inspects the small rivulet
seeping through the splinters.
A brook weeping at the seams,
glass half empty.

What is hope?
Hope isn’t much, actually, but it’s a lot.
I like to see hope as a Huge On Positive Enigma…difficult to
explain, maybe just as difficult to have.
I see hope as us…Healing Over Past Experiences.
I see hope as us…Humans, On Persistent Expectations, living
to see tomorrow. Hope isn’t just Her Only Powerful Exertion over these tough
situations. It’s his as well. Hope is Having Our Problems Eventually die out someday. Hope isn’t just a name, How Often Placed Especially on girls.
It’s much more than an identity. Hope is us, Having Our Patient Expectations met…waiting
till then. Hope is Here…Our Present Euphoria, just until we have
what we hope for. Hope is How Our Planet Escapes being swallowed by
negativity…but that’s just my opinion.

the glass is neither half full, nor half empty.
it is rather full and overflowing.
it, then, creates
an ocean of images
of past lovers.

I never thought I could be this happy and full while being so sad and empty at the same time...

Half living,
half dead
I hear voices
in my head
Half crazy,
half sane
Cryingly laughing
in vain
Half empty,
half full
Glass is broken
after all
Half super,
half not
Don't know
what I've got
Half glowing,
half dark
Keep on flashing
that spark
Half satan,
half god
Half good
or half bad
Half yin,
half yang
Half old,
half young
Half nothing.
It
doesn't
make
any
sense

Is the glass half empty?
Is the glass half full?
Different perspectives and opinions may not always be right
To me the glass is full
Even though showing its not
All about looking at things differently
And making room for change and improvement
Even if others don't feel it's right

Rapid heart, beating fast, dips and dives within delight
Post you - sunshine rays, my days overflow with promise and pleasure
A cup half full? Was I a fool, to believe this life would limit what it grants me?
That life would cast me aside, once I find, I desire more?
Now with you, I clearly see, society's aim to tame, their need to divide this rising tide, to give us tunnel vision, to spread belief of this allowance, of only half a cup of happy
With you it's waterfalls of euphoria, society I reject your cup!
Instead I shall bathe within the depths of us and swim within this lagoon of love
To me, this could never be, just a cup half full
