Venom & Velvet

By Michelle L McCrackin

Poetry of Loving, Leaving, and Healing from a Narcissist

Loving a narcissist is like dancing with a shadow-intoxicating, elusive, and destined to leave you in the dark. Venom & Velvet is a raw, unflinching collection of poetry that explores the devastating cycle of loving someone who only knows how to take.

Through haunting verses and searing truth, this collection walks the reader through the highs of infatuation, the slow unraveling of reality, the betrayal, the rage, and, ultimately, the rise from the ashes. It is a book for the ones who gave too much, the ones who lost themselves in someone else's reflection, and the ones who are ready to reclaim their power.

For anyone who has ever loved a narcissist and lived to tell the tale-this is your story in poetry.
