Jealousy

silent predator

slithering into my heart

eating me alive

Jealousy

Last night I failed 

I lost control of all my projected composure

My pain points were pressed so deeply 

Pressing into my very being

My heart, my soul, my most intimate self

That I lost all rational thought or reason 

I transported fully into a realm of negative emotion 

Of jealousy so pure and unrefined 

Of jealousy in its rawest form

Overcoming every part of me –

I snapped 

(And it wasn’t pretty)

Envy

Snake girl

The only way to deal
With envy turning
Everything in its
Sight to shades of
Green, is to pierce
Through the deceipt
Of it, and to run
From it as fast
As you possibly can
So you may walk
In truth
