Poetry: Depression

by Janet Neumann

Created on: June 08, 2007

Whirlwind Dreamer

The Whirlwind Dreamer is as confused and
helpless as a deer caught in a swarm
of hornets protecting their nest
from unsuspecting intruders.

The Whirlwind Dreamer is hopelessly in love
with a man, who is inspired only by her
written words, and her soft spoken voice
filled with emotion and love, just for him.

The Whirlwind Dreamer is taunted by
her own sullen attempts of self-worth and
her reasoning as to why she stays in this
circle of definite self-destruction.

Yet, The Whirlwind Dreamers heart
beats strong with hopes of fending off
the chaos and self-doubt that process
her like the rivers flow free.

Than out of the shallow-breath of loneliness,
the Whirlwind Dreamer sees a lone monarch butterfly
float across a mirrored lake. With every flutter and
the reflection of duel beauty, she is given faith.

To just walk away.
