Her sad eyes look up at me with longing
A wanting for something I have
An opportunity I seized and one she missed
A chance to do better has never been more needed
She’s jealous
And it's hurting me

It’s so hard not to stare
As you know she is looking at you
Begging
And hating you for what you have
Hating you for your talents
Hating you for your friends
Hating you for the things she doesn’t have

What she doesn’t know
Is she is also hating me for my hard work
My well earned opportunities
My time
My money
That has all been spent in creating this life for myself
She doesn’t have a right to be jealous
She doesn’t get to do this to me

My success is my fault
I shouldn’t be hated for it
I shouldn't be ridiculed for it
I shouldn’t have to deal with someone being angry at me
For something that they didn’t get

She’s only seeing the good
She only sees what i have that is valuable
She isn’t seeing what it took to get me here
What it will take to get me further
How hard I have worked for something like this.

Jealousy is a painful experience
It’s one we all know of
But we shall be patient

I’ve been jealous of her
I’ve been jealous of others for a long time
It’s my turn to have something unique for me
It's my turn to have something i want

And your jealousy is not my fault
