after experiencing narcissistic abuse -
by enough as if my soul is on ‘multi-use’
i have come to know to proceed
through life with caution -
learning that some intentions will never
correspond with the flow of
wholeness in mind to put forth that motion
upon placing your soles upon the
‘welcome mat’ of my soul, all i ask
try to be open minded, graceful -
patient, even? throughout this process
i seemed to of wound up and tangled
the ‘me’ in this core for
the illiberal comfort zone of
those with unscrupulous intentions
pretending to be concerned of my goodness
while relentlessly being a covert mosquito - draining me down below empty,
slowly over time… incognito
With caution
