jealousy.

i hate jealousy, yet we all feel it.

maybe someone has REALLY cool boots and you want then same ones.
maybe you have a shirt but it looks better on someone else.
maybe you desperately want to see a band and you know someone who saw them.
and maybe...there's this guy.

someone who kinda makes your heart skip a beat.
someone who you just love to talk to.
someone you can always just sit with and maybe say nothing, but still have a blast.
someone like one of your best guy friends.

and when jealousy gets in the mix; it sucks.

something twists in your heart when you see them laughing with other girls.
you want to cry if they pass you up for someone else.
it hurts a bit more than usual when they say something mean to you.
and when they chose someone else over you...its painful.

this girl could be your best friend who doesn't even like the guy, but when you see them talking and laughing you just can't help but be jealous.
this girl could already have a boyfriend, but when you see them meeting at each other's lockers you want to be in her shoes.
this girl could be the most popular girl in school who only says a few words to him, but when you see him telling her a joke you've never heard you suddenly feel very insecure standing next to her even more so than before.

jealousy is the green eyed creature that gnaws at you from the inside and tries to burrow into your heart.

it's hard not to be jealous when you like someone so much.
especially when you're having such doubts about him ever returning the feelings.

my heart is already a little broken.
but jealousy shatters it.
