Envy

A rose of rich color Parallels a wood fence I can’t quite love her Though it makes sense Unlike my lawn My petals are green Enraged by her song I chose not to sing My beauty is fading Dulled by her shine I’ll waste away, waiting To move up in line

Your beauty spills out into your pen. It is not what we see in a mirror but the reflection in our eyes and the inflection of our laughter
