Sociopath trust
Never trust a sociopath
You are but a mere pawn
The game of chess their playing
Before you were even born
Consistently controlling
Expertly they design
While you begin to question
They assure you it's all fine
Exploring your securities
Challenging your beliefs
Showering you with compliments
The love they show is deep
Very few close friendships
As noone understands
Only you can see within
Ignoring the red flags
At first they look in awe at you
Jealous of your heart
But trust them at your peril
As they'll tear your soul apart
Never trust a sociopath
They play a different game
As you lean for contentment
They jump on a faster train
They search for risky consequence
Find excitement in your fears
They pick away until you bleed
And shame away your tears
They'll push you to your limits
Then walk away with glee
As you question what was said
You'll be begging on your knees
Friends will see right through them
They'll hate them from the start
They plant small seeds of questioning
Guiding them apart
The easy way to make you theirs
Is fill your hopes with doubt
They isolate, they devastate
You'll learn to never shout
As you begin to change yourself
You start to question you
They'll laugh and say it's in your head
You oversensitive fool
Family is worried
Friends try to explain
You try to reassure them
You try to hide your pain
Never trust a sociopath
Unless you learn their games
They only have one weakness
And that's their lack of shame
When you understand a sociopath
You'll find the strength within
As you have love, and joy, and trust
That's how they dragged you in
The very things they made you doubt
The things that make you true
But as you see life's not a game
They lose their grip on you
To understand a sociopath
Are broken at the core
While they sit planning their next move
Youve already closed the door
