It creeps up unexpectedly
Just when things are going well
It digs its mighty claws in you
And drags you down to hell
There’s not always a trigger
To warn it is on its way
It is just ‘there’ in your head
When you wake up one day.
You try to get rid of it
And pretend that you’re ok
But it has got a hold on you
And will not go away
No one understands you,
Yesterday you were fine
How comes now you’re moody
And miserable all the time?
I thought I had you beaten
Or at least, kept you at bay
But you’ve come back to taunt me
And are here to stay.
