Jealousy

My memories have been hijacked
by a persons jealousy
insecure people just cannot see
they judge you by their morals
pressed down upon you
must suppress my anger now
for cooler heads prevail

I thought I understood
just a little bit
but clearly I'm a little hurt
biting on my lip
pacing in my house
like an animal in a cage

It's really no wonder
my mind is in this shape
the gift of stone you gave me
gives me clarity
just one more moment
is all I really need
to tell you just how I feel
and what you've meant to me

you've drawn me out of my shell
again for all to see
my armour has been dented
but my heart is still clean
I will always think of you
in friendship I'm still keen
I've had the same discussions
about this very thing

but the conclusion that I came to
in turn has set me free
free from reprisal
and all it's dirty deeds
for friendship with you
is the most important thing
