Are you the man of my dreams ?
Making me laugh till I can't breathe
Your seraphic face
Drives me insane
Your hands around my waist
A smile and a caress
And in the twinkling of an eye
I forget your lies
I forget the pain you caused
As I was too much for you
I'm sure
But oh my ! Our life up there
It looks like a glare
You reminisce when in despair
When you made me feel special
Picked my heart like you cared
Dressed me in unknown colours
And erratic layers
I opened my heart to a stranger
I thought I knew for a second
But then I was left
Alone and Paralyzed from the neck
How did I not see earlier
That you used me
And put me in a cage
Unable to escape
Because of your narcissism
I was told you were a suitable suitor
From the girl who was cuter
I actually felt I knew you
And in the twinkling of an eye
As absurd as it sounds
My heartbeat was unfathomably loud
The beat was as if my whole world
Has been exploded once again
Falling in something called Love
With your soft touch
Like a wayward gale
Destroying everything on her way
I scratch your hair
As we tightly embrace
Pretending I'm the one you chase
Pretending you search my face
In every crowded place
You should have warned
Her fragile heart
Can't bear grey rats
That bite in the dark
Can't bear moles
And anything that breaks her soul
The little girl never have thought
Every interaction would cause wars
That would drive her mad
Would lock her in asylums
Unknown to man
So I call you just a man
Although I question that
I believe you are in the past
Hidden in the longest summer nights
Laying under the silvery moon
Memories that we'll forget soon
Looking at the gleaming stars
Almost as beautiful as you are
Laughing and having fun
A dream that lasted 14 days
Sometimes I wish you were the man of my fate

Being taken advantage of and discarded is a very painful thing. This poem appears to be an opening of the heart nicely written.
Thank you so much ! It was truly a very painful experience but I'm trying to put it behind me now.
You convey the pain here. So unpleasant to feel that you have been played. We do grow stronger where we break, although you might not appreciate that yet. Narcissism, yuk. A clean break is always best. They never change. A good read.
Wow! Thank you Cassie for your kind words! They mean a lot 💖you are absolutely right these kind of people are the worst!
Powerful work. The pain is palpable.
Thank you so much!!
Thoughts racing, whirling. This guy embarrasses me, not a gentleman. Nice work.
Thank you so much Dan! That's very kind of you !
Blimey .. talk about a whirlwind romance & what a bloomin comedown too .. I hope some very important lessons have now been learnt .. narcissists @ least real ones, the term is often overused and inappropriately .. rarely if ever change .. I know, I work with a whole bunch .. Neville
I absolutely agree with you ! This experience although a heartbreaking one actually helped me understand not only people\'s behavior but also my needs and what I truly deserve ! Thank you for your comment 🧡
