Mindstorm
Lightning splits the darkened calm
Thunder roars in mourning
Another sleepless night becomes
Another restless morning
The weather outside my window is pleasant
Nature does not disturb my slumber
But in my mind a storm is raging
No signs that it may soon pass over
Thunder roars in mourning
Another sleepless night becomes
Another restless morning
The weather outside my window is pleasant
Nature does not disturb my slumber
But in my mind a storm is raging
No signs that it may soon pass over

Author's Note
I wrote this short poem to compare depression with a seemingly never ending-storm. It probably sounds cliche, but it was fun to put into a poem with rhymes.
I know now the storms really do fade, but it can seem hopeless in the moment. If you have ever felt this way you are not alone.

Thanks, Afternoonpoet =] I feel like it's an idea that can be taken in many directions and expanded on. I'll probably be coming back to the concept in the future.
