Narcissism Poems - Poems about Narcissism

Black Jack
"The dealer cheated!" You cry to deaf ears Or at least, ears that need some aid "The game makers should've by now retreated, You will keep in mind my tears When you pay for what I paid." Honey, the world doesn't work remotely like that It won't turn in your favor when you play Blackjack The masses are cruel, they'll ridicule you like...

Lost Myself
If only I'd seen, Your true colours shine, Before your poisonous thoughts, Could ever dominate mine. Your toxic, degrading comments, Began taking their toll, Making me feel worthless, Tactically destroying my soul. Manipulating me to believe, Way too many times, I was completely crazy, Guilty of YOUR crimes. Searching for the evidence, I could never find, All just to prove, Wasn't loosing my mind. Still to this day, My anger burns deep, I...

Attacks By A Narcissist And Constant Gaslighting
they come with mirrors, not to see themselves, but to make you disappear. you say the sky is blue, they say it never was. you say you're tired, they say that you have slept. you say they hurt you, they say you begged for it. they bend reality like Einstein, grinning as you doubt your own memories, your own breath, your own name. by the time you crawl...

Loving an Enigma
???You are a riddle wrapped in stormy skies, A puzzle box with ever-changing locks. I am the scholar who forever tries To understand your paradoxical talks. One moment, you're a sunrise warm and bright, The next, a tempest raging wild and free. Your mood swings leave me reeling day and night, A dizzying dance of joy and misery. Your rages shake the foundations...

Premium Member What Is A Narcissist
One moment they’re perfect, The next they turn their backs When you start lining up All the red flags. When they start it will be like a dream, Thinking its good when Their intentions turn mean. You won’t see the truth about who they really are. You’ll keep up the excuses For why they are the lowest bar. They have no...

The Battered Wife
I cannot go backwards. I can’t believe in the deception You impersonate so well Smell of flowers Plucked in hell Hugs and kisses when lights are on Yells and broken walls When we are all alone Sweetness that is calibrated to a love you emaciated I have lived this deception But when you left I gained more perception And now I see you so well How you never...

2016's Trauma: Living with a Narcissist Part 1
I spoke to the universe and calmly said That I wanted a marriage.

Premium Member Solace in emptiness
I grew roots in my solace of gray Time crept in silence I found calm in her chaos. She doused my soul in gasoline but not to ignite wonder in me. I became her supply, the fuel for her fury Her scapegoat, someone to blame I am no longer me but a puppet on a narcissist string. My heart held hostage between...

Dearest, I know we agreed to practice stretching our compassion to include those we actively loath, and I have been trying but... Yes, I know, it's difficult to out-trump Trump's apparent toxicity, with benign integrity without appearing morally comatose So, what have you come up with? maybe it could work for me as well When my Republican friends ask me for feedback, which happens maybe... ...well, never I go with I have noticed that...

The King of Narcissism
I The king of narcissism! I am the king of it all! Everywhere I go! I know, I am better than the rest! I am just the best! If you dare call me fat, I will say- "I don't believe in that!' I am as slim as a stick, You are small and annoying! You little prick! You little pest, I know I am the best! II People love me! And...

Ego's Mirror
In the mirror's gaze, your love resides, Narcissism blooms with silent pride. Reflections whisper secrets untold, An obsession gripping, uncontrolled. Eyes locked on beauty, your own face, Lost in the allure, a self-embrace. But in this solace, truth hides away, For vanity's veil leads astray. Oh, Narcissus, captive of your own spell, In self-adoration, your heart fell. Seek beyond the surface, let ego subside, Discover a...

The Dark Side of July: Portrait of a Narcissist
When you left, you left me a shambles. Up was down and down was up. You were so matter-of-fact. “I’ve found someone,” you said. After eating a meal I had prepared And paid for. While I languished in hospital You were seeing her. What did you tell her? That we were over? Not entirely true. So she pursued you And you made it so easy. I was old...
