The fox, sly as its name
Lies and deceit it’s favourite game
It plays so well
It’s got you under its spell
When its white lies turned to black
Saying words it can never take back
Destroying all in its path
You thought you were safe from its wrath
Until it’s too late
Don’t sit and wait
Don’t cower
Take back your power
About The Fox:
I know some of you have experienced dealing with a narcissistic person or someone with narcissistic traits because we’ve had that conversation in the comments before. And I’m sure for those of you that have been around those kind of people, this poem may be relatable.
Narcissists have this ability to appear the victim and so helpless. And those of us that have a normal sense of kindness and empathy often fall for their traps. Only to realise that they are more than capable, they just choose to take advantage of those around them and use their strengths and intelligence to ruin lives and cause havoc. I wish that wasn’t my life right now but it is. And that’s what inspired the poem. As I try to navigate through it all, I can’t help but feel defeated at times. But in those moments I need to remember that I’m stronger than I’ve ever been and this too shall someday pass. I hope anyone dealing with something similar remembers that too.
What did you think of the poem? Have you ever had to deal with a narcissist or someone with narcissistic personality traits? Let me know in the comments below because I would absolutely love to hear from you or simply stop by and say hi!
