This is an excellent poem describing the narcissist. You shine the light on this kind of personality for the reader to see clearly what they're like. Thanks for sharing this informative and well written poem.

Thank so much for your validating review. Part of the problem is the Narcissist is often charming when out socially, ,which makes the victim feel even more crazy and vunerable to self doubt.
Have a great day, Jeffrey
Comment from Sharon Haiste
This is a good example of a loop poem. A bad example of a life. No one needs to live through that misery.
Well written, and well said. Head for the door indeed.
Thank you for sharing this with us.

Comment from Roxanna Andrews
Others can so easily destroy us with words. Why do we let that happen? But we all do. I had an ex sister in law who was and is a sociopath. Doesn't care who she destroys even her kids. Sickening. We tried to get my brother to run but he wouldn't listen. Boy is he sorry. Very well done, I'm sure there is a name for the type of poetry that uses the same last work as the first word in the next line. Really great.

Comment from Mrs. KT
Hello!
Your loop poem hold great truths and a powerful message. Unfortunately, many narcissists populate our society today. Narcissism is rabid. You characterize the narcissistic lover very well. And by all means: RUN! Thank you for sharing!

I have known several who are just as you indicate here. They are absolutely never, ever wrong. I blocked a friend on facebook because she loved to point out my faults and tell me how superior she was. No one needs that in their life. Great writing.

Comment from Mustang Patty
Hi, Trisha;
This was an informative little poem, but very sad. It is sometimes scary to realize how it is we were taken down to our lowest level. Once we reach that level, it is very hard to pull ourselves back from the brink. Thank you for sharing this work, perhaps it can help someone dealing with this issue,

It was an answer to my dilemma of why does he act this way? I ended up sick from the stress twice and the decided to fight back to health. I have become much stronger and now I can reject the projections when I KNOW one is not true..Self doubts
are no longer an issue.
Your supportive reviews are always appreciated.
Hugs,
Trisha

I liked your poem. I suppose it is free verse - not very acquainted with this genre. You still provided artistic expression: It was intersting that you use rhyme in the end and beginning of each line.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Wow! This is a powerful write Trisha, stand well back and give this guy some space and don't rise to the comments or head strong actions! No feelings of love could be afforded to such a person, but realising someone is like this is the first step to controlling your life I think, love Dolly x

I knew too late that something was wrong, but divorce was not my choice. Only recently have I found answers to my many questions. The puzzle is now complete, too little, too late in life. I?m much stronger now, and don?t take his projections to heart ~ but my love has diminished big time.
Hugs, Trisha
