Jealousy Cocoon

Jealousy Cocoon

Jealousy, don't you come in my way

Don't veil my mind, don't drive me insane

I know that you cleverly ‎mask the truth 

The complexity of possessiveness and insecurity camouflaged underneath you

In your bed of madness I don't want to sleep

The love that lies within you it’s dangerous and sick

Paranoia is one of your side effects

Your users become delusional and obsessed

Imagination blossoms like flowers in spring

Betrayal worries grow like weed

The mind held captive under detrimental fury

Unleashing transgression and wrongdoing

In your cocoon the transformation is reversed, the beauty becomes the beast

You are the unwanted threesome in a relationship, the wrong harness in a sexual role-play

Your opium runs through their veins

Their mental faculties become insane

Hence, I carefully walk under the sun, avoiding those icy roads that cause to slip up

Here and now, I resign from your messy affairs

Don’t reward me with your faithful followers.

I have read The Rose Woman, Talent in you, and God Bless His Soul (my 2nd favorite) but this poem, Jealousy, is by far my favorite one of your works. Maybe because I can identify when on one of my stupors. Or maybe because I gain insight into the mind of certain individuals and empathize with how they might feel. Whateber the reason, I felt something in this poem. And thats the best possible outcome for a reader of poetry.

Hi Connor thank you for your meaningful comment. However "God Bless His Soul " is not my poem, it's not on my profile :) I appreciate your thoughts.
