Jealousy

Jealousy is poison, it runs through my veins; taking hold of what it can, holding me by the reins.

I can’t stand to look at you, yet I cannot stop; you’re like a forbidden gem I shouldn’t see, but it’s too hard to flee.

You should be mine but you’re not; knowing so leaves me feeling shot. The poison boils with terrible rage; making me feel trapped inside a cage.

I’d give up everything just to have you, but it won’t happen, I’m feeling blue. The poison has now taken a new course, as well as forming a new source.

It begins to rip me apart, slowly shattering my heart. The tears I cry are oh so cold; draining me of what I still hold.

You’re a curse, a blessing, I can’t decide, but no matter what, I will continue to hide. My killer lives inside of me, fueled by emotion; the name it has is jealousy, a secret deadly potion.

It hold me in chains, they will not let go; until you leave this place, if not they will just grow. Nothing seems to break these chains, invincible they are; though one day I will be free, but that day is way too far.

The moment that my eyes meet your unforgivably handsome face, darkness grows so vastly, without a steady pace. I’d give my soul to you, whatever you would want; I cannot do this anymore, this evil deadly hunt.

I’m sad to say it has mastered me, its roots too deep to see. The poison venom coursed too fast, too fast for me to flee. The name of this you may ask? Well of course, it is jealousy.
