Cruel Intentions

In the depths of despair, I find myself lost Trapped in a cycle of pain and mental exhaust A narcissist's presence, a poison in my mind Leaving me broken, struggling to find A way to fight through the trauma they've caused To push past the darkness, to not be paused Thoughts of ending it all, they linger near But I know deep down, I must persevere Why would anyone be so cruel, so cold To inflict such agony, to watch me unfold In the grip of their twisted manipulation Struggling to find my own salvation But I refuse to let them win, to break me down I'll rise from the ashes, no longer bound By their toxic influence, their malicious intent I'll reclaim my power, my spirit unbent Though the road ahead may be long and tough I'll fight through the pain, I'll be strong enough I'll heal my wounds, I'll mend my heart I'll find my peace, I'll make a fresh start No longer will their words hold sway I'll break free from their toxic display I'll emerge from the darkness, stronger than before And I'll walk away, leaving them no more So here I stand, determined and brave Ready to face the world, ready to save Myself from the grip of their cruel design I'll fight through the trauma, I'll leave it behind And in the end, I'll be free From the narcissist's hold, from their cruelt
