Jealousy

by elizabeth   May 16, 2005


My blood boils as it moves through my veins
Not smoothly as blood should
But raging and the waves of an angry sea
I feel the heat in my pores
And my skin burns as fire
…What is this feeling?

My eyes lock their stare
Piercing and full of emotion
They turn to ice amidst my skin of fire
I cannot break their gaze
Oh, if looks could kill, this surely would
…What is this feeling?

My head throbs
My stomach begins rising
As my heart drops
They switch respectable places
All the while, I choke for breath
…What is this feeling?

My eyes of ice
Slowly begin to melt
As the tears of fury form
My throat tightens
Along with my eyes, my spirits dissolve
…What is this feeling?

It all started
When I saw her with him
Every time she made him smile
It pierced my heart
It tore open my soul
…What is this feeling?

Then it finally hit me
The monster that’s been haunting my mind
The demon that’s been crowding my thoughts
The most destructive emotion of all
The sensation I haven’t been able to shake…

I now know what this feeling is.
...I’m Jealous
