Sunset Herb Of Envy Poem by Jacob Underwood

Sunset Herb Of Envy

Rating: 5.0

You are nothing, you have no shades of scarlet.
Yet they still adore your fondant lull.
As if you have talent, you are no prophet.

And sure, I don't have your lustrous shine like a garnet.
But I want to see your face sinking into your skull.
I don't have that much envy only a droplet.

It's not my fault you make yourself such an easy target.
with obnoxious elegance like you're trying to be made of tulle
My marigold petals are like a meadow flame incarnate.

But I will make sure that all your doors are shut.
All you seem to show is the need for a cull.
I become wrapped in vines now neither of us will become a
starlet.

your skin looking like wilted olive leaves trying to be star lit.
such a green it's a surprise that anyone doesn't deem you null.
I deserve light more than you, your name will never be Scarlett.

now your jaw doesn't stop with words coming out like a turret.
you should lose your tongue for Your voice so musical.
Why should anyone like you have the usefulness of an armlet.
won't be bad putting you in the ground now I glow like a sparklet.
