When Fragile Heart Splinters

Brittle sky falls, wrecks starry night
The moon slits, dissolves in the dark
You disappear out of my sight
On journey of search I embark.

When the clouds gather, storm descends
Brittle sky falls, wrecks starry night
I hear the sound of ruin it sends
I wait, you would bring the day bright.

My mind seeks a flash of your light
To show you how in my dark tears
Brittle sky falls, wrecks starry night
For you I kept within for years.

In me shadow of past enters
Grips my present with all its might
When in me fragile heart splinters
Brittle sky falls, wrecks starry night.
