Besotted

Jealousy eats at me, masticating my miserable flesh, each time I see your opulent smile it takes yet another bite, chewing slowly savoring and seeking my heart to enmesh . . .as visceral emotions move slow through molasses midnight. 12/25/2019 Gregory R Barden Arbitrium Divisa contest Taken from "Jealous"
