Here I sit to pass the time

Wondering why if you are mine

She can take you away so easily

It makes me livid--  green with envy

Emerald, glass, a sleek silhouette

You take her comfort

Me you forget

Along with all your other responsibilities

It's so cloudy behind your eyes

When they meet mine, I can't disguise

The jealousy I feel

We used to be so real--

Now all I'm left with is your word

And all the same things that I've heard

About a dozen times at least

So you go off now, do your best

I'll stay here, tend to the rest

Quietly staring at the pieces you left here with me

And I'll be brave, and I'll go on

But whether you should come along

Or stay with her in her misery

...well you see, it really makes no difference to me
