(364)▪︎[ Closure … 2026 ]

[ One Day You Were Told This … “People Don’t Abandon The People They Love, Only The People They Are Done Using” ]
[ This Is Not You Accusing ]
[ This Is You Saying That You Are Tired Of The Abusing ]

[ For So Many Years She Said That Everything Bad That Has Happened Was Your Fault ]
[ (30yrs) Of That Sure Did Stick In Your Memory Vault ]

[ For All Of Those Years You Carried Alot Of Shame ]
[ Because She Always Had Her Finger Out ]
[ Pointing @ You To Blame ]
[ There Was Very Little Doubt ]
[ Pointing Her Finger @ You Was Her Favorite Game ]

[ She Got Good @ This Game Like Sharpening A Knife ]
[ When You Made Her Your Wife ]
[ You Did Not Ever Imagine That You Were Going To Waste Over (30yrs) Of Your Life ]

[ Maybe Way Back Then You Looked Ripe ]
[ To Be Used By Her Type ]
[ You Never Had A Gripe ]
[ Listening To The Hype ]

[ You Always Thought Your Future Was Set ]
[ But She Did Alot That Was Very Hard To Forget ]
[ You Always Thought That You Were Going Against Her Families Bet ]
[ After All Of Those Years You Grew Tired Of Being Treated Like A Pet ]

[ You Always Felt Certain ]
[ That She Wanted To Hide You Behind A Dark Curtain ]

[ She Seemed To Have The Itch ]
[ To Look @ You To Say, “Get Behind The Curtain, Bitch!” ]

[ She Always Needed To Be Out Front & Center ]
[ But Then She Put Up A Big Sign, “Do Not Enter!” ]
[ She Was The Driver Of The Car ]
[ & You Were Just The Rear Fender ]

[ You Sure Got ]
[ To Know Your Spot ]
[ She Was Important & You Were Not ]

[ She Really Did Not Like You To Express ]
[ When You Were Depressed ]

[ She Was Sure ]
[ That Would Take The Spotlight Off Of Her ]

[ The Quote You Were Told Gave Your Marriage Enough Exposure ]
[ & The Meaning Behind It Sure Gives You The Much Needed Closure ]

(303)▪︎[ Next Time, See The Signs … 2026 ]

[ When It Sounds Like An Argument Is Going Back & Forth ]
[ Maybe You Should Take A Pause ]
[ Then Go To Your “True North” ]
[ Before The Other Person Starts Showing Their Claws ]

[ Because You Might Find That Their Strongest Characteristic ]
[ Might Be When They Show How Narcissistic ]

[ They Truly Get & Are ]
[ That Might Be Why They Are So High Maintenance ]
[ Like A Really Expensive Sports Car ]

[ Going To Your “True North” Can Have Such A Calming Affect ]
[ Especially In The Face ]
[ Of Someone Who Acts Like They Are An Emotional Train Wreak ]

[ It Is Not Up To You To Solve Their Problems ]
[ Or Fix Them ]

[ A Narcissist Cannot Ever Get Out Of Their Own Way ]
[ Mainly Because They Do Not Ever Believe They Are In The First Place ]
[ No Matter What You Will Say ]
[ Or Show To Their Face ]

[ A Narcissist Is Never Truly Empathetic ]
[ But Getting Away From One Can Prove To Be ]
[ Very Cathartic ]
[ & Strangely ]
[ Staying With One Can Prove To Become Very Problematic ]

[ So Why Would You Want To Stay With One ]
[ Since Now That Everything Has Stopped Being Fun ]
[ You Are Just Very Pleased That There Won’t Be An Anniversary For Year (31) ]
[ So Take The Advice Of “Run Forest, Run!” ]

[ You Will Find ]
[ That You Will Never Be Able To Figure Out The Thinking ]
[ That Goes On In Their Mind ]
[ They Could Try To Spend Many Nights Binge Drinking ]
[ & They Will Never Go Dakine! ]
