Half man Half empty

by mostafa   Dec 20, 2008


My head hurts ,My heart aches
i can't stop these thoughts from coming
too many bitter feelings i can't shake
i wonder how much more of this i can take

never thought emptiness could fill up so much space
hopes and dreams are all I'm surviving for all these days
numbness spread out of my heart to touch my frozen face
i feel like giving in but the sun keeps sending me warm rays

high on pain ,living in vain
rise and fall again and again
I've been in and out but I'm still insane
might have lost my head but the memory remains

i kept telling myself tomorrow will be better
that it would be the day i get myself together
promised myself I'd be a changed man by then
more hopes more dreams ,even my promise is empty

long ago i convinced myself that i don't need you
that all i needed was my friends and something to do
thought that it was enough to have both in plenty
but i never expected that I'd end up half man half empty

    What a wonderful piece.It was so amazing and really touching.We all feel depressed in some occasions in our life,but we can get our selves out of it by keeping our hopes and dreams because one day they shall come true.

    You really described what it feels like to be without the one that you love. 5/5
