I stood before a better dawn,
Wondering if fearing this
Should chance our fallen song.

Cruelly, summer's sailing on
Into a bitter, storming drift.
Crying over why and if,
My last sun can't rise long.

I actually created this with limited words- like one of those fridge magnet things with various words everywhere.
I just pieced it together, and actually loved the outcome.
