Careless Words Careless words    Tumble from your lips      Like daggers to my heart Effortlessly over your teeth    You ravage me      With trivial angers Simply    You slip into slumber      Transgressions forgotten      While I weep ABC-D © 2001

~Jealous~
I get mad, you wonder why
I get sad, go off to cry

Whatever it was
The answer is simple

I'm Jealous

Jealous of your regular life
Of your family with no strife

Such a simple thing
You'd think it was a 'Right'

I'm Jealous

The closeness of your family
Something missing for me

I'm glad you don't have to ponder
But it bugs me just the same

I'm Jealous

You don't have to rehash your past
Your memories are tight and fast

I wallow with questions
Shiver in uncertainty

I'm Jealous

You have never been to the bottom of the well
You don't have a dungeon where darkness dwells

Crimes like this are stories
To avoid in the news and on TV

I'm Jealous

You're anger is fierce and fast
Hot, and quick, but doesn't last

You don't know how it feels
To burn with eternal rage thwarted

I'm Jealous

You're life nearly whole; complete
I have holes and no retreat

You're life is hard, I know it is
You have pain and anger too

I'm Jealous

You don't know what it's like
To triple guess your thoughts; your life.

A microscope to every motivation
Searching for the true reason

I'm Jealous

You'll never feel like I do.
