the empty cup

it's funny how empty i feel.

but i guess it makes sense that when the water is gone

all that's left is a cup.

it took me a while to notice

that my water, my energy was draining.

but now that i'm empty it's hard to care.

i know that i need to be filled,

but the only source of water is my tears

and the more i cry, the less i feel.

i'm just an empty cup,

waiting for water,

but no one cares about an empty cup

and when a cup is empty,

it doesn't care about itself either.
