Without warning,
It comes,
Disguised,
As a dog,
First,
It befriends,
You,
It’s harmless,
What could,
A dog do to hurt anyone,
Next,
You go about,
You’re day to day,
Life,
The dog changes,
Colour,
Appearance,
Attitude,
It’s no longer,
The friendly dog from before,
It’s now,
A black wolf,
Howling,
Biting,
At every chance it gets,
It lingers,
In your shadows,
In dreams,
In the day,
Ready to pounce,
It causes you to feel,
Heavy,
Lonely,
Anxious,
Angry,
Worthless,
It causes you,
To shy away from friends,
Family,
And even loved ones,
It causes you,
To think,
Constantly about,
All the little things,
And big things,
Even worse,
It causes you,
To think about,
Throwing your life away,
You didn’t ask for this,
You wish for the wolf,
To go away,
For it to choose someone else,
To be elsewhere,
But it remains,
By your side,
Like a guardian angel,
Yet,
Why does it whisper,
In your ear,
Telling you not to sleep at night,
Why does it tell you,
That you don’t need to eat today,
Why does it drain you?
Of all you’re energy,
Why does it take so much?
And give so little in return,
The one day,
You seek help,
To manage to keep,
The beast at bay,
They give you pills,
But nothing changes,
The wolf,
Gets angry,
Hungry,
For more,
You try to come of the pills,
The wolf remains,
Ominous,
And black as before
