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! _iyebiye_
