Empty Glass
Why do I pour?
The pitcher of emotions steadily flowing
into your empty glass,
As I wait for your response from the
taste test of my heart
Just to only hear a "thank you, preciate it"
What sense does that make?
Is it fair that each time you ask,
I work my ass making your Lemonade.
While you have A Seat at the Table, I
carefully select every thought
word, feeling, urge
to add for sweetness.
Or maybe Lemonade is the wrong drink,
In that case let me find the thing
That will make you think outside of your mind,
outside of your past,
your experiences
Maybe it'll help you understand my feelings
and after gathering the best grapes in the land,
Crafting the finest wine ever,
It still wont be enough, no
Never
Possibly something strong yet,
smooth will do the trick
Something that can slur you into another
state of mind...
Which will never work since you have
More Issues than Vogue
and yet I will still continue to squeeze
as many Southern Peaches
to make you drunk off my words
Hoping to influence you with the
Liquor of my heart
Although, we should build Sandcastles
I mean at least thats a team effort?
Or am I asking for too much, maybe...
Maybe next time,
I'll pour and as the cup runs over
Continue with a Smile
As there will be nothing left of me
And just to think,
The glass will still be empty.
