At first I had nothing, but was not empty Until I met you and changed me completely You filled me, little by little 1/8, 1/4, to half full Until to the brim you filled me. I am already full, I could say But still, you continued pouring. Those emotions you gave were overflowing I thought I couldn't handle, So I told you to stop I chased you away Until you were gone I told you to comeback, but it's already done The feelings that you once overflowed, Was there no more All I could do is to keep these feeling you left for me To let it linger inside me But as time passes by, The world, the nature, the sun won't let me Evaporation gets the best of me And now, Little by little The emotions I treasured was fading The feelings were fleeting But I won't let the world get on my way I shall conquer all the odds Just so that a part of you could stay In the darkness I shall seek shelter To hide from the sun To protect the fragments of my lover I laugh at the sun, and I mock the world For I am able to protect of what's left But most of all I pity myself For trying to satisfy one's self from that tattered dream Pretending to be happy for keeping a half of it Yes a half, but not half full, As it once was Because when he left, it can never be half full But will always be half empty.

Half.... FULL or EMPTY?
