Jade

 
Jealousy pricked is a prick
destined to fade to shadows
Cunning little feeling

Inflicted cuts
I feel their intent
Switchblade assault
I take note

Greedy feelings are rebellious
they want to to feast
I command them back

Choking on the bile rising
inside my jealous storm I am barren
conflicted need spits venom
I order it down

I swallow the words burning my tongue
some slip cutting the night
it is an internal fight

Swiftly the tide turns
a backlash of self loathing ensues
bitter reprisal for selfishness

I am beside myself in the lonely clique
singling out your aura
to understand you better
its affect isn't lost on me

Rising on the aether is your soul
you disturb my void
in the most beautiful way

I feel ashamed
