Loss of a narcissist

What do I really miss?
Unpredicatable points of view followed by aggressive tones
The upset, anger, the constant moans
About...
Working late or having no time
The evaluation, "I'm fine, I'm fine"
Squabling about nothing or over exaggeration
Never any words of love or adoration
The continued sleep late in the morning
The ever so present statement, "It's boring."
The frown and the growl, the lies and betrayal
The realisation our marriage will fail
The jealousy of me, my job and my friends
Of relationships with family, the list never ends
The way that you shout obsenities and cruel words
Controlling, coercieve, manipulation just taking turns
The drinking of vodka late in the night
It changed your appearance and bought about flight
The allegations, the cheating, the narcissist ignorance
Leave us alone, we want rid of this sequence.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
