He doesn't know.

Doesn't realize

How much its hurting

Tearing, slicing

Through his heartstrings.

He's blaming it

Always blaming

On the stress

Just relax

Relax

Nothing is wrong.

But then he sees her

Sees her with him,

Talking, laughing.

Smiling.

His eyes watch them

Asking silent questions.

His heart aches in reply

Giving an answer.

He doesn't know why

But a desire grows.

He wants to stride over

To pull the couple apart.

Y

et he still doesn't know.

He blinks.

Turns away from the scene

Of romance and first loves.

Must be food poisoning.
