Car Ride with a Narcissist

a poem inspired by past events

Photo by Nick Fewings on Unsplash

Amazed at the little oxygen needed Words words words

Exboyfriend #30 deserved it Backpacking in Europe for four months

Words words words Take these vitamins take these things Herself herself herself

I could be a wall to bounce her word tennis balls off of and back to her again and again

refilling her endless well be careful not to look

too long at your reflection in the pool

I could be an audience of one as she twirls and dances and performs on stage

I’m see through Or a mirror

I could be anyone

She doesn’t ask about me Or want to actually have a conversation

It’s one way It’s her time to hear herself talk

The story on repeat Like a spider

I’m the fly this time I try to make listening sounds

I’m captive after all I say something

That I think is relevant and that someone would say in a conversation But this isn’t what that is

She dismisses it Talks on

Her Exboyfriend#30 is crazy and needy and brought her flowers I stare out the window and think

Sir you really dodged a bullet with this one And send him empathy and positive vibes wherever he is now

Hoping it’s far away and hoping that my ride

My time as prisoner Is almost over
