Picking Up Pieces

Picking up pieces from a fallen star,
love crashed to earth from afar.
Shattered shards of glass are all that remain,
pain and sorrow upon me rain.

Devastation of a night dark and bleak,
gone in a flash the love I seek.
Searching for memories that I might keep,
now what I sow is what I reap.

Plunging downward your lovelight burned out,
teaching what pain is all about.
Your love and my heart now lay on the ground,
silent, broken nary a sound.

Sitting here weeping in such disbelief,
heartache overwhelms mid my grief.
Shadows forming, the night has turned gray,
love has died upon this day.
