Green Jealousy grows Like algae Clinging to everything Choking the life around it. Red anger flows Like the blood in our veins Filling our bodies with hate Love fills the room A delicate scent Like a rich woman's perfume Infecting those around it Pain overwhelmed the heart Infests Kills like a canker Feeding like a parasite. Lust lasts fleetingly Here, the gone Teasingly, smiling at love Dancing away, never to mix
