highs and lows

Deadly depression.
You think it ends
Then the next day,
You're not too sure
Almost as of it was a tidal wave.
Deadly and unforeseen;
Creeping up slowly and without
A sound;
Not even a trace.
Until there it is,
Overtaking you,
Consuming you.
The highs and the lows
Come in extremes.
Always one or the other,
Never both.
One second you're one;
The next you're the other.
And here I stand low in the trough,
Waiting for the high
To come once again.
The thing is:
I know it's won't last.
