Borderline Personality Disorder Poem by susette varga

Borderline Personality Disorder



Loving someone with BPD
Intensely caring
warm
Smart
And funny
But their behaviours
Often drive others away
Chaotic
Intense
Conflict laden

Out of control emotions
Misinterprets
Minor events
And situations

In turn withdrawal
From interpersonal relationships
Impairment in self worth
Life goals
Self direction
Unstable self image
Leads to despair

Terrified that
Loved ones will leave them
But feeling smothered
Fearful of intimacy
Abandonment sensitivity
Craves love and affection
But bats between
Withdrawal and isolation

Frantic efforts to avoid
Strong desires
Unconditional love
They feel inside

The need for a soulmate
To rescue them
From intense emotions
And emotional pain

Wishing only their loved ones could see
Their so many positive qualities
They are fun
Exciting
And so passionate
Intensely emotional
Desiring only intimacy

If you truly love me
Look deeply within
Please see the real me
