absence of light

Life is good - except for the times when it's not.  This new feeling is like untravelled ground.  Some days it chooses to behave and remain at bay, though other times it unleashes a wrathful storm that consumes me for days.  Although this has been a recent establishment, my fear is peaking and I'm trying my best to reel it in.  Dark thoughts come and go in fleeting moments.  All I can say is this is not me - I have never been one to host these sorts of emotions and all I ask is to return to my naive, mirthful self.
