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. October 18, 2017.
