********************************************

I had changed.
And people hadn't really noticed.
Or maybe they had.
I wasn't sure.
But I was happier.
Had colours of joy and shades of sun in my eyes.
pieces of the moon in my back.
Pieces of memories not truly forgotten.
I could smile and laugh, even though I knew that there were mountains crumbling somewhere.
I couldn't hear the sounds their caving in on themselves made.
Couldn't hear the rumbles of thunder Zeus creates.
I could genuinely smile and laugh.
And life felt easy, not something I had to work at.
But there were storms,
Clouds and winds lurking in my lungs.
I could feel them sometimes,
The feeling of an oncoming panic attack that never comes.
There were storms, I was desperate to lock away.
But I was the storm, before the storm
No damage done yet.
Not like the damage that had been done before.
There was a time when the storm shattered glass and eclipsed the sun.
Threw the moon out of the sky.
Made the sound of mountains crumbling travel across barren lands.
Made the thunder sound loud.
Zeus was angry.
Athena in shambles.
No longer war goddess
But a goddess at war
And I'm afraid.
That the lurking clouds and winds will turn into something more,
That the happy will be thrown out long before I had a chance to capture it.
Long before I found out how to clone it.
I was walking one day,
I Felt a wet wind and saw dark clouds
And it became hard to breathe for a while.
