Following my steps closely, panting deeply exhaled breaths, glowing eyes watch my every move,i see it out of the corner of my eye. Some days it is nowhere to be seen, always it returns back, haunting me,stalking me. This dark depression demon cannot be shaken off, my life constantly darkened, setting neat footprints into the winter snow of my soul,doggedly following. music was my refuge.i could crawl into the spaces between the notes and curl my back to loneliness - Maya Angelou |

Your analogy is quite good and your poetry is excellent reading, as always. |

You've written so well the sense of always being followed, never knowing when an attack may come!! |

you ... and Churchill ... me as well ... I call it the dark wolf instead though ... (I believe it to be one of the natural curses of poets and 'Romantics') ... exceptionally well stated ! |
