I love writing slam poetry, this one I wrote after observing one of my dearest friends gliding down the rabbithole because of her narcissistic partner.

Please let me know what you think 🤔

It is called "Master Manipulator"

Golden smile. So deceiving,
Puppy eyes. Keep me believing,
That all you said, was true.
Dissapointment left me blue
With a smile, you judge optimistic,
With a grin you lie, narcissistic.
Thought you were protecting, me.
My good soul didnt want to see.
My mind knew but my heart dissagreed.

You brought me pain, tears,
Anxiety, unrealistic fears
Unintended, i fell in love,
In love with your deceive,
Gave you all my sunshine,
Pain is all i'd receive.
Finally realised, you're a thief,
Who didn't stole my heart,
But who stole my believe,
My believe in you and me,

The sleepness nights,
Staring at the roof,
Opened my eyes to see,
That you were in love with,
Yourself, and not me.
That you were in love with your ego,
And your image to the outside world,
With your skill to make the truth
Twisted and curled.
Addicted to the feedback you get from those
Who do not truly know you.

You rather be loved for who you aren't,
Than disliked for who you are.
As long as the outside world sees you as a star,
You dont care about the fact that you scar,
The ones that love you most,
The ones that keep you close,
The ones that truly care,
The ones that are always there,
The ones that dare,
And truly did, put aside their dreams and desire,
Because you liar, made them admire..
The fake version of you.

But I see you now my one and only,
Master Manipulator. With your beautiful narcissistic behaviour. And your tied lies, that makes your despise, the true person that lies deep inside. You.
