UntitledA Poem by Tristie FrostI just had to describe my inner feelingsIt 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
