Your mask is slipping your make-up is chipping and the real you is being exposed Ever since I paid attention studied your projection now your secret has been disclosed I knew you were egotistical controlling and boastful but the manipulation wasn't as clear Your inflated self-importance was always abhorrent You wanted to be someone I feared Obsessed with yourself and **** everyone else No one could love you more than you Entitled and so vain you know you drove me insane and that's exactly what you set out to do Haughty and self-inflated you grew to be someone I hated while you let me believe it was me Thank God that I found out what you were all about and your narcissistic tendencies

Your Narcissistic Tendencies
Like the dawn creeping in through the darkness A forest taking over abandoned ruins You overwhelmed my world without a conquest Promising me the sun, the stars and the moon Under the bright gaze of your rising sun my misty dew-like innocence evaporated You treated me like a prized possession I didn't realize I was being manipulated Soon dark moods washed over your glitter and the mask you wore that held it in place was replaced by a cruelty that was so bitter that I could no longer tolerate the taste There were so many years that I blamed myself that it had to be my responsibility While you blamed me and anyone else no recognition , no accountability I wore your wrath like clothing ,ill-fitting mirroring back what you wanted to see While you watched the slow disintegration of the dimming light left in me Now when I see the sun and the moon I stop and it reminds me of you out at the same time in the mid-afternoon and I can't help but see the two faces I viewed
