Jealousy

Jealousy

1/25/11

9:40am

In the dark,

It breathes; it creeps,

In the dark,

It does not sleep.

In the dark,

It fans the flame.

In the dark,

It has no shame.

In the dark,

Its motive thickens.

In the dark,

Its heartbeat quickens.

In the dark,

It gives a glare.

In the dark,

It gives too much care.

In the dark,

In crimson, it waits.

In the dark,

It boils with hate.
