Give the Dog a Bone
Give the dog a bone
So I slunk back into my safety hole
Realising I’d teased the blackdog too much
Complacency I told myself
Brave until the bark bit
Tearing into old wounds
Foolish I told myself
You cant teach an old dog new tricks
Just control it with old ones
Safety I told myself
Give the dog a bone
A new one to gnaw on
Subtle changes i told myself
In time the blackdog will trust
Tamed, it will let in the light
Don’t give up I told myself
