Nothing Worse

Nothing worse,

Nothing more terrible -

Than a liar and a fake

A narcissistic sociopath -

Who just wants to take

A manipulater,

Twisting and turning,

Far worse than a hater,

It will feel good - the burning,

You never know what they’re thinking,

Always misleading, charming

Morphing into whatever you need,

Most ignore all that is alarming

You won’t know they got you,

They’re just that (good?) bad,

You won’t know they destroyed you

Until they already have
