Loving and letting go


Poem Artwork

Oh, how glad I am to be away

 

From that narcissistic person who led me astray

 

With lies and deceit, they took me for a ride
 
 
But now I'm free, no more tears left to cry
 
 
Their smart-ass tone, oh so condescending
 
 
Made me feel like I was constantly pretending
 
 
I see the truth, I see them deep
 
 
A manipulator, a user, a narcissistic creep
 
 
I won't be tricked again, I won't fall for it
 
 
My heart may be bruised, but I'm not a dipshit
 
 
I'll rise above
 
 
I'm free from the clutches of that selfish love
 
 
So let them bask in their own reflection 
 
 
I've moved on and found my own direction
 
 
Away from the lies, the games, the pain
 
 
Away from the narcissist who tried to keep me in chains.
