The fire fuels your heart
The tears sting your eyes
Your teeth and knuckles are clenched
Your blood rushes to your brain
You are looking around but,
You are blinded.
All you see is a blurred image.
The image could fuel you.
The image could break you.
Questions repeatedly prance around in your head.
Contagious thoughts, force you to be awake.
When they are asleep, you'll be yanking at the ends of your hair.
Why is his score better than mine?
Why does she have more prettier curls than me?
Why does he love her and not me?
A million 'why's will suffocate you
Repeatedly.
Tighter each day.
Do not lose confidence in yourself.
Do not let it overtake you.
Jealousy is an illness.
Get well soon.
