I need a river full of love
I want an ocean full of love to fill this void
It’ll never be enough to fill my heart
The holes will remain forever
I once had a cup, but once it overflowed, I had nothing
My empty cup just sat there, in the darkness, to be filled again
Once “again” came, I knew what the end result would be
I knew once again that my cup of love would be empty
It’s never enough
The holes will remain

Really great poem. The cup metaphor is used perfectly. Perhaps you should elaborate? Was the cup ever knocked over? Just some food for thought. Thank you for sharing

I like your poem. You might like my poem, “I thirst”.It’s about a cup of another kind of love.
