Exsanguinate
Being a pathological people pleaser is a slow suicide.

Blood gushed from her
Never-healing wounds
She was a fountain of blood
Her eyeballs on their skewers
Dipped into her blood
Blinded her from the truth
~~~~~
Blood type O, Universal Donor
So they let her bleed
Stuck in this barbarous cycle
They dipped into her blood
Both seriatim and all at once
They took and took and TOOK
~~~~~
She was already an anaemic
But they exsanguinated her
She shrivelled up, had nothing left
Her saviour complex saved them
But it didn't save her from them
Solipsistic vampires
~~~~~

Wonderful. Amazing Hugs Thank you ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
so glad you provided definitions.. the vampires are real
I'm starting to see that a lot of us on here are people pleasers. And this poem is such a perfect rendition of what it's like when you give a bit of yourself to others and then they take and take until there is nothing left. We don't like it, yet we can't help it 💔 Well written and well depicted, Dharr, and I'm so sorry for all those moments when this has happened. Humans really are like vampires (screw them). Stay strong, Dharr! And love that you attached the definitions (helpful for a dummy like me whose vocabulary is tiny, haha). Thank you for doing that.
Dear girl-this frightened me . Also it is such a masterpiece and testament to the immense power of your writing skills. It was an honor to read such a powerful piece
•–Hi Dharr, it’s me again, no you will never get rid of me mwahahaha *coughs* okay that was enough of that. •— this line ‘ Her eyeballs on their skewers’ made the first section hit hard, then you tied it off with her being blinded from the truth. It lets us know exactly how devastating this is •— when you painted the second scene using the analogy of type O ~universal donor~ my mouth went to the floor (( we don’t just feel what she feels, now we understand her •– then you hit us with the diagnosis after they took and took, that was clever •– ‘Her saviour complex saved them But it didn't save her from them‘ oh!! That’s it, you’ve nailed it 👏🏽
Wow. This is incredible writing.
Vampires come in so many different clothing, like wolves. So sad. kudos.
Wow
simply wow DRS
حميل-bien goood
wow
Universal donor and a recovering people pleaser 😅 this hit home and is terrifically crafted! Thank you for sharing!
That was incredibly intense and moving, thanks for sharing!
I love these poems with the selected words! Beautiful and haunting imagery, Dharr!
The vivid imagery of blood and its symbolic significance creates a haunting atmosphere that leaves a lasting impact, your words convey a sense of vulnerability and exploitation, highlighting the pain of being drained physically and emotionally, the use of blood as a metaphor for selflessness and the harsh reality of solipsistic vampires is thought-provoking. Your poem delves into complex themes, thank you for sharing your poignant and introspective work, have a nice weekend mate!
Her saviour complex!
Superb writing
So beautifully written! Loved it.
Deep and meaningful, just how I like it. Great work with a message starkly and boldly told , but true as can be!
Congratulations on your TS!! Thank you for the Content Warning but it had no impact on me in any distressing way. As so often with your writing I deeply relate. I find relief Pauline ❤️🌸
The imagery is definitely graphic but it drives the point across very well. Sometimes, you just have to say no, you are important too.
The imagery in this piece is incredible. Such a graphic way to capture the feeling of giving out too much of yourself.
very well.
This is so powerful and intriguing! Well done!
I love suspense!
