When I wake with the sleep
of the restless night on me
or the sweat of the nightmarish dreams
And the world with its brightness
is so out of place and will blind me or so it seems
You wait in the shadows
watching me struggle
composed you hover on high
My tentative steps more confident now
You snigger, you know its a lie
Black dog,
black cloud,
black ****
Whatever your name shall be
I wonder what I've ever done
to deserve your treatment of me
I've clawed you,
I've fought you
I've cursed you
I've slept you out of my life
But back you came in the morning
You came with a sharper knife!
