Poem is about nobody in particular

I leave a stain whenever my heart beats, a few are quite beautiful although brief. Like a water-colored morning whispering or a moon licked mermaid sea, but most are pocked with lust's conceit... I leave a stain whenever my heart beats. Turning sparrow psalms into silent crows where blackness climbs the picket fence these stains tend to over bend the soul. I leave a stain whenever my heart beats.

I'm glad this is about nobody in particular. It is so very sad and dark, yet so beautifully written, I want to reach out and whisper you are not so bad, you can do better.
