A Narcissists’ Quicksand
I wish to travel to a distant place
Where you are valued equally like all the rest
Finding my home rather than a floor in a room
Treated like an Adult
Rather than a stupid “Adult kid” or “Creative overly nice pest.”
Some people become “nice predators.”
Everything you need or want gets weighed upon their scales..
as they act like ******’s “S.S”
They control and place your needs upon a scale to weigh.
They push you to only seek the interests that fuel their egos...
You begin to grow bitter and cold
As the one you cared for has put your happiness’ lot on sale.
Circumstance keeps you in their controlled spaces.
Transportation lacks, viruses, and lack of being allowed to pursue your social arts
Prevents one from growing to know you in other places.
One feels like a slave.
I captive.
A failed overly nice discredited idiot
Inside you fume like Chernobyl before the explosion.
Having no place to go and a government unwilling to help you get out of an abusive living space
Fuels their egos to demand constant attention to their ideas
not yours to invent and earn
You feel like destroying them and excepting a park bench or a room at dangerous living area walls built
in hastily expansion.
If nothing you do is good enough or right
When choices are asked for diners and or events
they don’t matter
Having a fuller life such prevents.
Your psychic becomes rusted and destroyed
You wish to abandon your identity and run to a free but unwanted, freer, but limited life where one feels they live work and are simply employed.
How does one break the locks when family is gone and one is unknown?
How does one ask for partners in creative careers and help to get out of life’s quicksand..
No help or supports in sight.
Sinking down to your demise
You try and fight the situation...
However, you sink even faster. Feeling old, failed, and quite the one acting unwisely.
You need education and their mission is to discipline you
weighing you down instead of letting one evolve and travel.
Their own interests sold for the need to satisfy
an ego that needs to be tossed out or a win in a war of intelligence
when people think they can do more but cannot
you can use talents to improve the world
In their eyes...
What they see you try and succeed at
The sabotage, threaten, and allow you to have less and rot.
