Green-eyed monster

Like a rose plucked in its prime,
She wilted away before her time,
The poison of words in her veins,
Sips her beauty and all her remains.

Her light snuffed out, like a candle flame,
When angry hearts brought her to shame,
The monster grapes her feet with lies.
She screamed but, shattered mirror cuts her eye.
