Emotional Blackmail

Oct 2014

Emotional blackmail
Rejection unveiled
Manipulative plan
To get what they can
Absorbed in their needs
Their own ego’s to feed

Very powerful poem. It sums up what virtually all of us go through in an amazingly short piece. Nicely done!

I can understand and relate to these words, Laura. People who resort to such tactics are usually the ones at fault, but they try to make out as if it's yours and not theirs! A few lines, but much food for thought! Regards // paul
