Should I Be Jealous

by Yvette Gibson   Nov 2, 2006


Should a be jealous of my friends?
Because they now have what I always wanted?
True love?

And to sit back and to cry inside?
Because of the person I desire doesn't even realize I like him?
Or love him?

Should I be jealous because I once thought I was in love?
And now I'm just hopeless?
Possibly.

Would it be wrong to say I hate it?
Every second I see them happy?
Because I do.

And to be jealous that I once was the main actuation?
And now I'm nothing?
I hope not.

Should I be jealous?
Should I be sad?
Should I cry?

I want to...

Should I be jealous?
I don't want to be?
But I think it's just me...
