The Understanding

Is it right to hate your sister;
As she's an envious bitch
Who takes and takes
And never gives back?

Is it ok to hate the girl on your course
Who is brave enough to speak in front of hundreds
Because you dont know the answer?
Is it right i abuse her?

Is it ok to loathe at nature,
Especially the sea,
Just because its so baeutiful
And running freely?

Is it ok that i envy these things?

I became envious of stars one night.
Their beautiful glare shining.
They float with such grac and serenity;
But surely stars are lonely.

I am not lonely.
I have people to love me.
So why do i consistently push them away,
Making myself believe what i thought happened?

Envy
is
Healthy.

Its made realise.
Now i understand.
