Envious Suicide

by Tammie   Jun 13, 2007


Jealousy silently creeps in
Dark as a mid-summer night sky
Sabotaging innocent minds
Molding pure truth into a lie

Envy entraps misconceptions
Unstable minds lead astray
Deceiving thoughts cloud better judgement
Driving sane state of mind away

Intoxicating emotion
Complicating simplicity
Provoking unfair assumptions
Twisting intent so easily

A rare or blatant exposure
Elegantly dancing in eyes
Or hidden effectively
Inevitable break in disguise

Fate lingers shamelessly
Forfeiting a battle inside
Perfect failure of mind caused by;
Simple, envious suicide.

[[ This could be interpreted two ways. ]]

    Re-read it just for reassurance, and the flow wasn't half as bad I said. And, I was way too harsh for the skill I saw in it the second time. Very good poem, indeed I over-reacted. That was how I felt honestly with my first comment, and all authors deserve honest opinions.

    Uhmm, can I say that the ending was more filling than the parts before? The flow of the poem was as if a robot was talking to me. To me it was like a mediocere rap song with a catchy hook. Maybe I'm not giving you enough credit, it is 9:24am here and I haven't been to bed so excuse me if I was too harsh. It was a good poem, but the rhythm made me want to drown. Try to play around with a beat in the word play, and it will come out much better. Honestly, I was too distracted to notice the words.
