BY: LIZ HARDIE You are a con and a narcissist Gaining the trust of most people you meet Reading people, faking smiles and flaunting your charm, you felt like quite the catch Knowing what to say at the right time, words so sweet Those damn words, almost all of them stories and lies A con and I fell hard, fell in love with you Falling for the hurt I heard in your voice and saw…
By: Liz Hardie Victim mentality is a trait in those who believe they have no control due to harmful actions of others They believe that bad things will always happen, their actions had nothing to do with it, even with evidence These individuals will see bad in the good, carry grudges, never forgive, refuse to “move on” A mentality that at times may feel powerless yet they can be very manipulative, some have a narcissistic…
BY: LIZ HARDIE As a child you never thought anything of the lies you told They rolled right off of your tongue as if they were the truth, although they were not Those small lies you told growing up seemed like nothing to you The more lies you told, the easier it became, validation is all you sought You never thought about or cared about the people you hurt Only wanting to make yourself look…
BY: LIZ HARDIE Do you know what it’s like to be walking along, minding my business, and you get smacked in the face with a smell of your past, of pure evil? For many, this smell, a popular men’s cologne, may be wonderful, awakening their senses and bringing up great thoughts, maybe even excitement and joy. But for me it terrorizes me and takes me back to a time that I have tried to forget,…
BY: LIZ HARDIE Confusion, each day you look at yourself That is all you see Why are you here, are you pretty enough Are you fun to be around, why the dull personality Constant confusion in your head Are the new meds working, do you even need them Everyone keeps saying you do, you guess you agree Sadness consumes you, around others you force a smile or a grin Confusion, thinner, chubbier, thinner, chubbier, is…
By: Liz Hardie As children we ask, “Are there monsters among us; monster under my bed?” The answer was, “No” and I was never told, “Beware of who you fall in love with.” Monsters are described as ugly and frightening Those you fall in love with can be both, monsters are not a myth They are humans, dressed in normal clothes A beautiful person with a kind, heart, as gentle as a lamb Full attention…
BY: LIZ HARDIE Wake up, feel empty, just hoping your anxiety gives you a break You slept 12 hours but it only feels like one No matter what you do the feeling you can’t shake Your heart pounds and you feel like you can’t breathe Thoughts consume your mind and again you are lost Lost for hours it seems, gaining your composure seems impossible You wish you could exit this black hole, you would at…
By: Liz Hardie Mental abuse can be highly damaging to someone, although difficult you can survive and recover from abuse The time it takes a person to recover could take months or years, it will not happen overnight The mental pain and anguish I was personally put through is hard for me to wrap my head around Thinking I was loved, in reality I was being manipulated and controlled, nothing I said or did was…
BY: LIZ HARDIE The child’s environment is important, they have anxiety and fears just like their parents They feel your pain and your happiness, to them you are transparent No matter how much you try to hid, they see right through it You can say you are fine, but if allowed they’d call bullshit Children feed off their parent’s emotions every single day, some days confused Other days so happy and over the moon with…
