Jealousy

Do i have the right to be jealous
When other guys around you my thoughts get hellish
When others make you laugh or smile
I want to use my foot and boot them a mile

Yet on you i have no claim
Your not mine i have no game
Who ever knew a dream could be so vivid
When ever i see you, or hear your voice in it

Lady i love you today
And i will love you tomorrow
In my heart you will stay
But my claims on you are hollow

Heart breaking has me shaking i can't stand the rain
My love forsaken from your heart and i feel the pain
The image is in my head i just wish i could live it
Jealousy is my wound and i just pray i can heal it

Just another girl who wasn't into me
How many others? lost count around infinity
Forgive me its just another bout of jealousy
I have no claim because you don't even think of me

Many of the guys can relate to this..but, I'm like you, no need to chase after someone who's not interested..too many women out here. I'm happily single with a good job and no kids. You just have to continue living life and pursuing your goals..women aren't going anywhere. This is more than two cents but, I'm just keeping it real...enjoyed reading your piece of art here.

This would be a great song. Have you considered using your lyrics and introducing them to music? You're talented
