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
