Jealousy

Jealousy, a green-eyed monster in my heart,

A burning flame that tears us all apart.

It creeps in shadows, like a sly thief in the night,

And steals the joy that love and laughter bring in sight.

It twists my thoughts and makes me doubt and fear,

A poison that infects my soul, year by year.

It whispers lies and makes me see the worst,

An endless cycle of pain and endless unrest.

It's a thorn in my side, a constant ache,

A heavyweight that I can't escape.

It makes me question all that's true and right,

And fills my days with dark and endless nights.

But still, I'll fight against this jealous heart,

And seek the love and light that sets us apart.

For, in the end, love will conquer all,

And jealousy will fade, like a dying call.
