I am a garden exploding with flowers,
Like a work of art
but your eyes were closed and
You didn’t care to listen to my thoughts,
You cursed me when I begged you to stop...
spelled your curse words...
Your so smart
I’m a landscape designer and really connect spiritually in the garden. I begged my narcissist to stop calling me names which included every name in the book. Once I started counseling, I demanded that he stop cursing me so he would spell out your a “B I T C H.” He’s an attorney so he thinks he’s smarter than everyone.

I TOOK it and HEARD it
And tried to forgive,
Forgive the last time, or time before,
Forgive all the hurt
But I couldn’t take it anymore
Now the only person
I need to forgive is myself
For trusting a monster
Who is in love with himself
I was taught to be forgiving so I forgave horrific and abusive behavior over and over again always hoping it would be better but things escalated as I became more tolerant of abuse and he became more violent.

If he truly
Loved me
Than he would
Have been
More kind
When my
Dear brother
Died
The narcissist said awful things to me after my brother ended his life.
Narcissists have no real emotions and are incapable of empathy.

I began with honesty, trust
An open heart
The door closed little by little
Every time you burst

My bed is for love
Which is why
Our children slept
With me
My kids also felt safest sleeping in bed with me because He was abusive

Poetry by Damian D. my boyfriend of 2 years after a 16 year relationship with a pathological narcissist

To give you what you need...
And appreciate everything that you breathe...
So desire to be that peaceful heart,
Perfectly easy with you...
And what I care about
Most ultimately is for you to be truly happy and free
To experience life free
From negativity...
Free to reflect your true beauty
And see you shine...
I see your success...
Your natural drive,
Business smarts
Selflessness strength
And courage mixed with your innate desire for unity
And peacefulness....
I see your ultimate success being achieved
In the near future...
I’d partner with you in an adventurous endeavor...
Unsettle all your issues and I’ll look for an amazing place to create an amazing way of life...
It’s been hard for me to function properly
With you,,, and I apologize sincerely ...and hope you know I cherish you.
Damian and I are still friends.  The chaos of my life was too much for him so he moved and we parted knowing it was the right thing for both of us at that time.  I will treasure Damian always for the beautiful life  we shared and our creative energy which was through poetry and work where we did landscape design.  He was my bridge over rough waters.
