Jealousy

Your love to him was strong
His love to you was none

You thought you’ll be together
He thought it’ll be a never

To him you were a friend
One he could count on,
To you he was an angel,
Sent from up above

He talked to your friend more 
Then you
You talked to him as
The days went through

You’re friend says he is nothing
But listen to her do you?

There was only one thing
You thought and that was
Jealousy.
