Lately
my obsessive mind
has been focused
on my self-sabotaging body
so I Google
"How to stop being so narcissistic"
as though my depression didn't grow
from the seed of guilt,
the product of a need
to be the perfect
daughter
friend
sister
and failing,
obviously,
because nobody is perfect,
and it is unreasonable to expect
perfection.
Not to mention
I doubt narcissicts feel guilt over the frequency with which they use the word "I"
So perhaps I can forgive myself
for finally making decisions
based on what's best
for me...
finally.
