I have dreams
Dreams of deserted highways (I kind of don't like the repetition of "dreams" here, but that's a personal opinion)
And overcast skies
Where the glasses were once full.
But drinking from a glass half-empty
I fall from the clouds
And shards of glass break my fall [,]
For I find that all things may shatter
When there is nothing left to take away.
And as I lie on my back
The gray dragons glare down at me [;]
Water pours from their mouths
And I find that the rain
Chills me to the bone
And I wonder
If I will ever
Smile again.
I had dreams
Dreams of sunny afternoons
And streets of laughter
Where we drank lemonade
From glasses full to the brim
But one-by-one
The street emptied [, or ;]
The laughter trickled away
And I found myself in a joyless dream
With a glass half-empty.
Anyway, this is a nice poem. I like how you describe laughter and things like that, and it's a cliche saying that you're basing this off of (glass half full/half empty) but you manage originality. I think punctuation would help to make it flow more smoothly but that's really my only complaint. Nice work!
Keep writing,

I like this. I didn't really see any punctuation issues or grammatical issues either. There was one place, in:
"But one-by-one
The street emptied
The laughter trickled away"
Where I thought that you could use commas around one-by-one because it is kind of an interrupter. Besides that, it's all good. And I read this kind of like a song and I think thats good.
Anyways, byebye now.
