Green Eyes

You want to know why they say jealousy's evil?
It makes you lose control over everything.
I know this girl who is slowly pushing everything close to her farther and farther away...
Her void of jealousy swallows up all her kindness, happiness, and humor
– leaving no room for anyone else
It distorts her vision and feelings too
What she sees are creations of the green monster's skillful hand
What she hears are the malicious echoes of arch angels
And how she reacts to those things
Is what stalls her path of recovery and deepens her pit of hate
