Narcissistic
I suppose it's unrealistic to believe
a narcissistic could be artistic,
instead of self-loving, so used to shoving,
or so vain...just the bane of my existence.
I need some distance from your
hedonsitic dreaming...
so, I don't go ballistic, and start screaming.
Hi Geneva... i am attracted to your site by those kind words u wrote for my Everyone Of You...Smilesz...well, here i am, lingering in your hall. Hehehe.. this is the first piece i chose,..interesting title (but not that i am an extreme self-lover. Haha). Rachelle commented it really well - to have self esteem, u need to love yourself. But if there comes a time when u love TOO MUCH of yourself, it gets yucky on others. Well, guess there's MODERATION for everything in our life eh? I like this poem's theme ....really refreshing. A little sarcastic in tone, but yet so insightful and evoking. smilesz. Thanxs for sharing. I am going to linger around more..~~~~ :@)
I really dig this one, Geneva. I actually related to it, even. There are a few ways to look at it. Either as selfish, or or how I tend to feel about it, and that is that you have to be happy and love yourself in order to love and bring happiness to others. A concept that many people just don't understand, but I can say I attest to. I was miserable until I learned self-love, including embracing things about myself that aren't so lovable. Well-written piece of poetry~ The process can be exhausting (as I am sure you know) for both the person and everyone that person has in their life.
Geneva, This piece reminded me of so many people it's pathetic. (Maybe I should keep better company.) I liked it very much. Very relateable.
