Jealousy

It never ceases to amaze What my body does when my mind does craze So preoccupied by this love am I That I took no notice of your eyes Nor your hair nor skin But with your heart, what lies within Though my heart be aflame and zealous I know better than to be jealous Alas my feelings dare not expire Though my mind begins to tire As for your body I have less to tell Though I believe he could describe it well And while there is no love between us I wish I could not be jealous Far from reach your affections stray Never to see where mine lay Within his arms you find your prize Perhaps he took more notice of your eyes And though I will never fuss I lie alone, a little jealous In this night I begin to daze Knowing you beneath his gaze For my body these thoughts do raid As my emotions take a greenish shade And while this restraint be thus I find myself far too jealous In this passion I’ll find no retreat This love a prison, its walls concrete So with this pain I am force to toil But your happiness I could never foil So in my veins my nerves do ruckus As my mind reveals it’s jealous With this envy the curse complete But with your heart my own does beat As yours quickens through your lust And mine through pain its woeful gusts Though in this struggle I shan’t retire Ridden with pain this love, my most sacred fire While you might think this love too callous I assure this, you should be jealous
