Envy

Chaos in dissension
by a name I dare not mention
to reveal it gives it power
to conceal it seeds a flower...
that will pollenate temptation
set the path to your damnation
like a weed that chokes the best of me
Till it devours what is left of me...
when your first thought is in spite of
and the second is in light of
then everything you think there after
will drown in someone elses laughter...
let your thoughts flow like the ocean
so your heart dictate's the motion
never envy what another
may have borrowed from some other...
