Narcissus

To say I can't stand you would be an immense understatement

You are just far too imperious to even notice my existence 

Or is that just an act..

I see the way your eyes quickly avoid mine when we they make contact

That look on your pallid haughty face speaks miles

You can't stand that someone finally rejected you

Mr. Perfect

Mr. Amazing

Mr. Can-Do-No-Wrong

Mr. You-make-me-lose-faith-in-humanity

You are a disgusting slave to the typical male agenda

Your life is a convoluted lie 

The web you weave is so intricate I doubt even you could keep up

Wow. So beautiful, and so symbolic. The title is really what I find to be the most beautiful part of the poem, because its just so creative. Narcissus, the Greek dumbass who wasted away on his own beauty :) a great story, and your poem is so similar to the old tale and also so unique.

I sense the feeling of infatuation and disgust, wanting and resentment, all expressed in a few lines of creative diction and good syntax. I am incredibly impressed with this poem. I normally like to give helpful advice, cause there is always something to improve upon, but right now I am really having trouble finding a flaw. If anyone else wants to review this and find one, Id be happy to see it. For now, one of the best poems I have read today :)

Keep up the good work, and rate this review if you found it helpful!

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for that! You have no idea how much it meant to hear someone say that. I was kind of iffy about posting this one but I sincerely appreciate your comment.
