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...

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.
