A Spoken Poetry

ENVY & JEALOUSY

They can only see what is good for them,
and not that others have needs to.
So they hurt those people they should not,
hoping it will make them feel better.
Instead, it makes them feel worst
for their anger only forces people away.

They so want to be noticed,
and they'll do anything they can,
to try to force people
to notice them.
They wonder why
no one listens to their needs.
Wonder why people begin to turn away.
They forget about their demands.

We walk paths on our own way,
while other try to force us
to walk paths with only them.
Some get ungrateful
if we only walk awhile,
and then help someone else
on their lonely mile.
They get jealous.

If we do for others
what you are only expected,
to do just for them.
therefore, it goes on and on,
until one day they look around,
finding their demands
have left them without friends.
