Broken Pieces Fall

~~~
                                                   broken pieces fall
                                          shattered and scattered about
                                                    a reflection gone
                                                           ~~~
                                                    lost images fade
                                           as shadows pour and cover
                                                     just a memory
                                                           ~~~

oh as for your senyru-- this is a very visual one for me, I can't help but imagine this, and hoping that some Great puzzle maker can piece them all together-- but ah that second one gives it some sort of peace for me, just a memory.... Maligayang Bati (Happy birthday in Filipino)! :D
