depression takes over

the blue sky hovers silently  
peaceful thoughts and feelings stand strongly  
a cloud is in sight, drifting like a caterpillar inch by inch
the girl below is unaware of the devastation in front of her footsteps  

in her eyes the simple silent cloud is harmless  
like a tiny caterpillar with no ability to attack  
so the girl keeps on walking the walk  
oblivious to any impending rainstorm

the birds show no sign of future rain  
signals, warnings and sights unapparent
and suddenly the pitter patter lands
first one drop then two
proceeding to a thousand pennies and pounds

her legs give way and fall to the floor  
she is defeated
the caterpillar turned dragon has caused a major shift  
caught in whirlwind of dark cloudy emotions

they have managed to capture her mind, again  
harmless caterpillar cloud refused to turn into a butterfly  
turned into a dragon instead
pennies and pounds pushing her to the rocky floor

all seems bad , past pains and future fears  
they are the enemies
knocking her  to the floor each and every time  
sometimes it feels like the past has power
unchangeable pains haunting
my present moment has been ruined once again
