Jealousy

Jealousy

Can you feel the monster that's on your back?
He's there waiting for the moment to attack.

Vicious rage flows over your whole body
Face turns red, you feel like strangling somebody

His pointy claws sink so deep
Thoughts won't let you even sleep

Shaking confusion settles over your mind
No good thoughts there to ever find

He can reach in an grab hold of your heart
He starts feasting on it and tearing it apart

Your stomach goes numb
This feeling feels dumb

Can't fight this monster or you will surely lose
Hide away and try to cover the feel with booze

He stays on your back till you fight him off
Then he grabs your neck and you start to cough

This monster can only be fended by your soul
Shake him away ... Don't dare hide in a hole

Tell that monster that he doesn't belong here
You'll feel a release, no longer any fear

Enjoyed the read natalia.

To add-

Jealous and Envy, what a sad sad team
Instead of trying their best,
they rather remain envious till green

Paying attention to what hard works you put in, Only to dislike your presence,
but act like we’re friends with a hateful obsession

The best approach thus far, is to ignorance deny
When you see that hatred,
within their eyes

Don’t lower your vibrations, to their levels of hate
Stay focused on what’s important,
and goals to make

Eventually the jealous/envy team, will carry on
When you’re doing something right,
they will treat you like your wrong

You are welcome my friend and thanks for the compliment. 1 is happy you enjoyed the addition to your well written OP.
Jealousy is a serious problem that hopefully will become a thing of the past as the species matures and realizes to be jealous of another is basically contributing to species self hatred which can be counterproductive to the overall process of advancement/evolution.

Very good heres a good one I found on the net
Envious:
It is my greatest struggle that mocks me
currently,
To be at a distance of this pleasurable question
mark,
A rose that I have yet to flatter, in this scene that
is now haunting;
Is it the mystery of your soft appeal, breathing in
this heinous reality that solicits my quest?
If so,
How could I not advance before death?

For it is from envious, that I’ve witnessed this negative
space unfolding;
Perhaps I can shatter this wall of illusion before we
waste ourselves into demise,
And with an existence beyond this one-dimensional
scent,
We can dispel the devils air of confusion, and be released
from our sinful distance.

Finally, with envious tendencies finally answered,
We’ll rejoice in the contrast of regret, and be reborn as
one flesh,
Immune from living in this blunt separation entitled life;
I pray that angels follow my envious passion into tomorrows
unknown romance.
