Sigh
I admit it
I
Am
Jealous
I am so jealous
And it makes me want to give up
Because if I try to keep you
Like I so desperately want to
I might get burned
So to prevent this fire hazard
I simply step out of the picture
And pretend that I don't care
Even though I do
Because I want you to love me
Wholeheartedly
I want it so badly it hurts
But at least I will be the only one hurting
Not you, her, and me
What's the point of that
It's better just to sacrifice one
Instead of everyone
So I act nonchalant and hide
But I just need to admit
That I am
Jealous
As much as I hate it
It's the truth
I
Am
Jealous
