Jealousy

April 16, 2013
Jealousy is a spiteful thing Yet we all feel it, inside our souls, waiting to burst out oozing from a crevice deep inside To be jealous is human an emotion that can’t be stopped It is inevitable an unstoppable avalanche that haunts us daily reminding the world of its great weakness Jealousy is a simple word Eight letters that describe a monster which lies inside the sweetest creature Do animals feel jealousy? It seems impossible for they are pure, not stained by the curse of jealousy. I envy them so.
