Envy, like ivy, itches But its rash is green, not red And the victims affected Are those who caused it instead. Jealousy, like fire, burns But its blaze is cold, not hot And the flames spread Inward in the heart it caught. Resentment, spite And bitter greed are bred Within the veins of the Jade blood that’s bled. The ice cold heart plays Tricks on its clueless host. Jaded is the one who Started off caring most. No one likes a needy fool— It’s envy’s tragic curse. A loving angel shall be Turned into their very worst.
Isn’t it funny how things change? The monster I am today, Was once the loving friend You simply turned away. I admit I am no saint, but I was No sinner to you, ever. I just couldn’t stand it when You thought you found better. How was I to know you Couldn’t see that I was hurt? I hope even now you’ll think Back on how I at least came first. I’m not sorry, and I don’t think I ever could be For you closed your eyes And let envy take me. The monster I am today, Look into my eyes, You created this person You so fervently despise.
