Gay or Taken
The familiar green monster
I never came across
She comes crawling from inside
Because the way you smile rips me to pieces
That I don’t want to fall in
But I can't help it
I can't help it you're so amazing
Or seem that way
I feel weaker than collapsing
Preferably on you
Though it will never happen
Not now, not ever
Why is everyone gay or taken?
I hope I've mistaken

Not now, not ever

'The familiar green monster' Loved that imagery.. Jealousy, right?
I love the uncertainty, always second guessing like we all do..
'I don't want to fall in' is a fantastic line as well, jumping in is hard enough but when we can't stop ourselves it's even worse.
Nice little twist at the end, loved this. Great work!
