Finally Faced A Narcissist.........

 Oh, how delightful it is to be the talk of the town,

To give them such an interesting topic that they can't put down.

They whisper behind my back, those cunning souls,

Trying to manipulate the narrative to meet their goals.

But fear not, for the tables have now turned,

I stand tall, no longer the one who's spurned.

No longer will I be walked over and used,

I've learned my lesson, I can't be abused.

My story may not matter, that's quite clear,

But life has happened, it's left its mark, I fear.

I've been hurt, I've healed, and I've grown,

And now I know who deserves a place of their own.

Those who brought chaos, they can stay away,

I no longer beg for love, I'm not here to play.

I choose who I want around, who I'll let in,

This life is mine, and I won't let guilt win.

So call me the villain, if that's what they say,

I've finally stood up for myself, come what may.

No, I don't seek revenge, I let karma do the work,

As I move on, leaving behind the drama, the murk.

I deserve peace, tranquility in my life,

No longer will I be caught in their strife.

I've learned my worth, I won't settle for less,

I'll embrace the calm and let go of the mess.

So let them talk, let them spread their lies,

I've found my strength, and it's no surprise.

I won't be their puppet, their pawn anymore,

I'll rise above, while they stay on the floor.
