Jealousy

by Kayla - Pisces

I drive myself insane with these thoughts running constantly through my mind,
If only I could find a way to leave the pain behind.

I realize I will never be able to truly trust,
As I wonder if love is nothing more than a naive sort of lust.

To say this feeling is new would be a lie, for I have experienced jealousy many times before,
And nothing in life has the ability to hurt me more.

If only I could actually be in control of my own emotions,
For they swirl inside my head like a turrent of hurricane plagued oceans.

I try to calm myself by drifting into sleep,
But my dreams are haunted by the secrets I must keep.

I wake up with my heart pounding hard against my chest,
This is when the pains of jealousy are at their very best.
