Life is a story, a portrait, and a bridge that must be crossed. Life is a challenge, a beating heart... life is pain. But for me, life is much more. Life is words. The beautiful ones, the desperate ones, the painful, breathtaking ones. So here is where I'll leave them.

Green Eyed Monster

I am a green eyed monster.
Jealousy has eaten me alive.
I watch you, perfect you, confident you, beautiful you.
As green eyes shine throughout the night.

You wore born with a gift, you are assured. You shine so bright, you could be a star. Brilliant, talented, a true work of art. I am nothing as I follow in your shadow. But one day, I achieve success. I achieve happiness, through a gift I call my own. I invite you to try it, figuring you could use more happiness in this life of yours.

But you steal all of mine away,
And the green eyed monster comes back to play.

Watching your beauty, watching their love, watching your good luck, watching your confidence. Watching you float, on clouds of your happiness, wishing I could be, a bit more like you.

With green eyes I watch, my happiness die
With green eyes I watch, and with green eyes I cry
