Jealousy, Anger
Unprecedentedly, Jealousy came knocking on my door,
She looked so appalling yet, satisfying,
And without a second thought; I took her in.
Hiding her from my folks, we became indoor friends.
I never allowed her out with me,
All we did was confined to the four walls of the room I set her in.
Somehow, I got under her influence.
As thick as a brick, I never saw it coming.
She invited her friend, anger.
Anger looked radiant and Beautiful,
I was glad I had a new friend,
At least, someone to move around with without getting to bother about her look.
With anger, I became free,
Free to say things as I think of em,
Free to express myself the way I want to,
Freedom that Jealousy never gave me.
Without much further ado,
Anger decided to leave,
Anger took the best part of me.
Unfortunately, it wouldn't give it back!
