Blinding Narcissism

An empty space Something’s missing Inside you Incomplete creation A solitary soul Living to yourself In your own world Out of touch From those around you Words have no impact On one born without empathy Leaving me destitute Demanding sacrifices Yet, unable to give of yourself No reciprocation Wasting no time on matters That bear no benefit To your selfish desires Spoken words Dry like the desert sands Flat, no genuineness Imitating emotions That you will never feel Because you are A broken, empty shell Pretending to be human
