Exceptional

Great job. This is a really good nonet, and it brought out anger, and sadness I enjoyed reading it. The picture was beautiful as well!

Sometimes I think life is a lesson. This poem sure seems like you learned one also. You are well thought out. Nicely written with vivid imagery and descriptions. Excellent. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Margaret Snowdon

Excellent

You used and abused me from the start,
Oh how you loved to play the part.
Mind so twisted, tongue of lies,
Never seen, your disguise.
Narcissistic man,
You killed my soul.
Stole my life,
Took my,
All.

A most impressive Nonet poem - a good contender for the contest - good luck to you, my friend.

Very telling and poignant, your nonet of the narcissistic ex.

I lived with a narcissistic mother, and I know the patterns well.
I can feel the words you write, they speak to me clearly.
Nice job on this poem.

Thank you so much Julie. It is hard to cope with at the time as you will know. The best way to beat them is to live our lives to the full.

Thank you Tammy your reviews are much appreciated as per. Yes indeed they do 'LOVE' themselves. He may infact be able to make offspring with himself. I've told him to go F**k himself often enough lately. Excuse the language.

You achieved a fantastic shape with this poem. The nonet is a favourite form of mine and I enjoy writing and reading them. Your message here is plain and to the point, (pardon the pun!) Sounds like a bad deal to me! Good luck for the contest.

Thank you Giddy, this is my first attempt at one. I found it challenging to say the least. Thank you for your best wishes in the contest.

This is nonet poem is a lament over the use and abuse someone dished out to the poet. They killed the poet's soul, and made off with everything.

Good luck with the contest!

This is well written. It actually appeals to one's emotions as the hurt is revealed. I would recommend it to others to read.
