wandering that narrow path (the new version)

Breaking your heart
Like splintering the mirror
As the crimson blood flows
I’m reminded of you

Every step that I take
Breaks apart the ocean
And every tear that falls
Shatters the world

It must be for nothing
That the moon sets every morning
Otherweise every night would last
But my fingers touch air

As your footsteps fade
into darkness...

    whoa this was such a good poem! The first two stanzas were probably my favorite, but the others were great too. You did a wonderful job with the metaphors, good luck in the contest

        hmm i don't think i could write anything better and the only thing i didn't get was the first stanza the the rest of the poem seems like a story and the first stanza doesn't seem to fit. likee what is splintering the mirror? never mind i guess i get the whole poem except for like the first two lines.
