I am jealous, and that’s a part of me-
I cannot rid, the hate I feel.
The burning anger that rises up,
The aching pain that cannot stop.
It is her, and him and that girl,
The demons that just make me hurl.
It is that, and this, and it’s my bad
That everyone thinks that I am mad.
I am jealous, of simply everything,
The lack of fun, of love, of anything.
The translucent tears that don’t fall,
And you, that upset me, above it all.
Everything I thought, it isn’t true,
The love, the magic, out it blew,
And then came something new,
It was the Devil, it was you…
Author notes
This is a poem with pain based on jealousy- about one who cannot be what she desired- but yet not written in a too suicidal way... I hope you enjoy it,
luv Sweet-Sins

Excellent portrayal of jealousy, an emotion I believe everyone has felt at one time or another. Though if you get comsumed by it, as some do, it can have devastating effects.
Well done
