Black Dog A4

“The Black Dog Print and Badly Written Poem. I started writing this badly written poem as a way to try and describe the helplessness of feeling at your lowest, that you have no control and are being whisked off by the tide, by a force it is impossible to fight against. How it can feel when that fog descends and you can’t remember what it was like to feel okay, and cant imagine ever feeling that way again. Then suddenly the fog lifts a little, and you remember, you can breathe. You don’t know for how long for, but you feel hope, hope you can feel okay again. This print is something I thought could be bought for yourself, as a reminder that you can live with your black dog and you will be okay, or for a friend or loved one to show you are trying to understand and are there for them.”
