You will meet those people who will try to get to you,
Just for how long will you take it, given they are quite a few.
Someday your silent tolerance will break into an outburst of intense rage.
Their narcissism craves for your reaction, I guess you have already gauged.
They play dirty because they know it affects you,
And they triumph with your emotional reactions. See just how easily they play you!
You must know their intent is to drown you to defeat,
Very smoothly they will win the trust of others and leave you to take the heat.
You may choose to look at relationships as 'Black' and 'White',
Better! See yourself on the Chessboard of life with a hawk sight.
You can't win any war alone,
But it's always best to let them think you have no one.
Life's a game of Chess which you can only learn at your pace.
Choose to get defeated by the opponent and blame it on fate!
Or learn the Moves to protect yourself from checkmate.
