Jealousy comes from the root word for zeal and means "to burn with an intense fire." It is one of the strongest drives known to man.
O JEALOUS HEART
O jealous heart
be still, be still
and let not your
anger rise
to overwhelm
devouring all
that seeks
what is good,
what is kind
your liquid
venom
spills across
my breast
and causes
me to be
restless
of spirit
of mind
your lust
for another's
doth only tarnish
my decorative
countenance
and makes my
lips sour
tasting only
bitter rind.
Happy Musings my friends, TK xx
oh this gave me the shivers. So well written.
