In the dim glow of a starry night

Your heartbeat a metronome to my hidden faults

I danced oblivious to the petty lies,
That spun us into silence.
Tears fell like errant meteors,
Their glimmer lost in the void between us

Your laugh, once a commets trail, faded to a constellation of missed meanings

I grasp at fragments of your heart,
An unwitting sculptor of sorrow,
My insecurities draining the once-vibrant magic
We're left with the relics of a tragic myth.
A narrative broken, scattered like glass across the floor of our past
