I'm Not Jealous But..

I'm Not Jealous But..

A Poem by MandaBear
"

I was inspired by Cher Lloyd's song "Want you back" and Shane Dawson's "SuperLuv" song I hope you enjoy

"


I'm not saying I'm jealous but... 
Umm what are you doing with her?
Holding her hand? Kissing her? Oh, no boy you can't do that 
You are mine and mine alone
Even though we are no longer together
We did those first not that I am jealous 

I'm not saying i'm jealous but...
Really taking her to our spot?
Telling her our favorite joke?
You didn't get my permission to make her laugh 
We laughed at those first not that I'm jealous 

I'm not saying I'm jealous but... 
Why would you go for the carbon copy when you could have the real thing?
Why would you want the imposter when you could have the original?
We were the best first not that i'm jealous

Can't you see we were meant to be together?
All you ever needed was in front of you this whole time 
So come with me and say you're mine 
We had it all not that I'm jealous

Spot on, when we leave someone, we replace them with the carbon copy, why.?

A feeling I'm all too familiar with. You expressed it very well. The sharp pang when he holds another but your mind trying to convince yourself you're okay. Great job!

Thank you. I am so glad you like it.
I'm sorry (if that comes from your personal experience) ! I'm afraid I'm way more familiar to jealousy than I would like to, this is indeed a very painful feeling and there's not much we can do but to tell ourselves the words we don't want to hear: let it go. Great poem :)
