A Poem by Tristie Frost
"

I just had to describe my inner feelings

"
It is the image in the mirror that stares back at me
It is a swirling multitude of self-hatred and envy
It is the dark shadowy beast that haunts me and never relents
It is nothing but a curse, seeming to go on forever and ever

It feels like a storm is brewing, and it only gets worse- not better
It feels like a gigantic leech sucking away at me, sucking away my life
It is my demon conjurer, releasing nightmares and fears
It agitates me and pushes me to the brink of destruction

It is the ominous black cloud that follows me around, pouring heavy sheets of rain on me
It is the wall that has been built up around me, so others can not be let in
It doesn't want me to get the help I need
It wants me to stay ill, so that it can be the master and I the slave
