Empty Cup
Here I am,
again,
laying here alone staring up at a ceiling that's staring right back,
why?
what's the purpose?
why was I put here to be so empty,
my cup
empty,
a burden more than anything,
I have nothing to give
no reason to live
but maybe that's the purpose
no reasoning;
just being,
I must go on,
an empty cup;
endless possibilities of what it could be filled up with
