The Pain Of Jealousy Poem by Chelsea Lybbert

Why is it I felt that way,
Like my heart was going to break,
The pain shot through my chest,
Deeper and deeper with each thought.
As there is something that nags at my thought,
And I wish it would go away,
As it is the twinge of jealously,
Coming my way.
For you flirt with all my friends,
And other girls I don’t know.

You told me at the beginning,
That you were a big flirt,
And I told you, so was I.
I wouldn’t let it bother me,
I really loved you, I wanted to give it a try.
But now we’re almost 5 months in,
And that pain deepens each day.
The jealousy grows and grows,
And won’t go away.

As you talk about them on the phone,
My heart want to give away,
And break into millions of pieces,
As I want to break into tears.
But I love you for who you are,
And I don’t want to change you,
So these thoughts racing in my mind,
Will be locked up,
And the key will be thrown away.
