Best Poems Written by Sabah Ahmad

Jealousy

Jealousy,oh,jealousy do not consume me
I am much consumed by love itself
I have nothing more to offer thee
All I have is a feeble heart,wrecked by deception and despair
Go find a better claim,I am not pleasing enough to be thy victim
Or better make my heart whole again
so that when thou claim me
thou may enjoy thy pleasures and I my pain

What shall thou gain by prevailing over a heart that is already prevailed

None won the battle already lost
None conquered the one already conquered
None enjoyed the prize that never was truly earned

Jealousy, oh jealousy,make my heart whole again
and relish thy prize.
