It sits in the bush
Head flicking about
Like my current mentality
“Failure, failure…failure!”, I internally shout

My mind is a blur
Shaken from the day
Pathetic fallacy visible in my surroundings
The sky cast over and grey

A symbol of contrast
Colours black and white
A symbol of sorrow
Yet in love with things glitteringly bright

Now sitting so tall
Ready to take off and fly
Ready to revel with cackling calls
Moving further and further up high

Each time I feel that spiral of fear
Each time I continuously cry
Each time I will remember
The Proud Magpie
