Jealousy

Never at heart's ease
Should one be greater
Than her
This green eyed other self-
Twin sister of love.

Born from lack of self confidence
Grows into the proud child
Of envy that perverts the mind
feels pleasure in the reverse,
Cruel as the grave,

Can endure its own despair
But not neighbour's hope.
To ignore the force of jealousy
Is to deny the gravity
Of this strange passion.
