my first poem
I based this poem on mental health because I have’t really seen any :) (I know it’s not very good but..)
The darkness sweeps across my mind
Poisoning my thoughts and taking over
My body not my own, but the darkness which consumed me
Breaking me down one by one as I struggle for air
Tears streaming down my face
The voices, the darkness all at once attacking my mind
I cling onto a sliver of hope
The thread so thin
Snapping of I make one wrong move
Debating to fall into the darkness
Or to cling onto the thread
The thread that’ll save me
The thread that saved me from the darkness again
But each time the thread is further away
I am further away from hope and closer to the darkness consuming me
