Title: A black mist
Author: Natalie Hayes

Poem: Pulled into the darkness, dismissed by the light,
Anger to all, impossible ability towards survival.
Hatred, death and sadness.
Tears of confusion.
A black cloud pressing on my chest, a weight crushing
what was once broad shoulders.
It rains & it is dark outside.
Nothing is possible.
I am a failure.
Tables turn & Yet, I become a success.
I can achieve anything.
Beauty overcomes ugliness today.
No time for sadness nor misery.
Expulsion of love to all I see, open-mindedness and giving will be shared today.
Greatness, success and great ability.
Socially-unachievable ideas penetrate the mind.
I will achieve!
Doubt sneaks in without a warning.
Cold, dark thoughts begin to weep.
....yet the black cloud appears once again.
I am hopeless.
I have no place.
Sadness washes over me, and I am gone.
...
