“Remembering who you are but not being able to he that person anymore kills me. I hope I’ll get back there one day.”

Oh I so relate to this in so many ways. Every single line.

And yes, you will. It takes time and patience and a whole lot of strength, but you will.

The images and the lines are both melancholic and powerful.

I felt both the pain and the phoenix stirring amidst the ashes.

Glad you are back. Brutal poem accurately describes the destruction of narcissism.

Thank you so much, Stephanie!!

I guess that’s the worst about meeting a narcissist, the destruction they leave behind.
