Jealousy.

It happened again...
Sounded friendly
Yet brought out effects
Of serious hurt and damage.

That is what it does:
Jealousy, when I mentioned her name
And anything about her.
It destroyed everything we created:
All our warm conversations,
Brought out all our secrets
Caused pains and aches.

This is it, a mere word
Sounds friendly but brings out
Effects of serious hurt and damage:
The desire to call you
What to talk about.
The fear of it all made me a prisoner.

Jealousy, it comes and goes
Jealousy, for only a brief moment
But nothing can stop jealousy
If allowed once.
