Jealousy
The eerie silence fills my mind
Shattering my thoughts
Glazing my eyes
Trapping me in a world of rage
I feel the rippling anger in my veins
The floods of jealousy raining into my body
Taking control
Throwing me into a sea of rage
My fists clench into balls of fury
My temples throb with the fires of pain
The pain of insecurity
Insecurity, the driver of my rage
Tears bleed from my eyes
Excruciating screams echo inside me
Creating a brutal whirlwind inside me
Ravaging destruction in my heart
Time ceases to exist
The feelings vanish
Evaporating through my skin
Leaving me void
Shadows of shame encircle me
Pulling me down
Wolves of guilt gnawing
Preying on my jealousy
My guilt and shame cripples me
Forcing me to surrender
Completely surrender
Surrender, to acceptance
My tears paint burning lines down my cheeks
Guilt, anger and shame running through my veins
But jealousy
The core of my pain
