The Dawn Broke Every Bone

The Dawn Broke every bone
While fighting the Darkness;
Still struggling to Rise,
She clawed her way
Over the Skyline,
Tearing herself on
Skyscrapers until the 
Whole Sky
Was stained Red;
Eyes were averted-
Everyone agreed-
It was Too Soon.

I did notice I wrote a bunch of dark poems in a row if that's what you're saying lol. In my mind it's good; I've been writing way too many gushy love poems it makes it hard to take myself seriously lol.
