I have a black dog as companion. I do not know when or how it started following me but it has been like a shadow following me for years.
People tell me that it is just a figment of my imagination. Just shake it off, they say. But no matter how hard I try, it just would not leave me.
There are times when I can barely feel its presence. Like a quiet little puppy following me around. However, there are also times when it is too much to bear. Just like a wild dog that needed to be leashed.
Experts say that I need to calm it before it goes wild but I am still trying to figure out the cues. Trying to determine the triggers that will make it go rabid. It is difficult to figure out. The quiet little puppy turns wild in an instant.
However, I need to learn how to control it because it is a loyal companion that will follow me for who knows how long. It is mischievous and I need to tame it.
