Jealous of You

Poem pretty loosely based on my own experiences.....You don't have to read it if you don't want to. o3o' Like really, it's just a venting of my emotions.

This is my issue

I'm jealous of you.

You flip open your book

And tell me to look

I see works of art

Secret pain to my heart.

You recite to me a passage in Spanish memorized fluently

I nod, smile happily

Though within

The walls of my temperance grow thin.

You complain you're the youngest in class

Yet all other students you surpass.

Even me

Especially me.

I ignore the compliments received

For my art, they must be surely deceived

 I point them to the better art

With a bitter heart.

My memory's horrid....

My skills ill-fated...

My rhymes blighted....

My pains muted.....

But I will never tell you

This is my issue.

I'm jealous of you.

Author's Note

I went with a kind of different style when writing this. At least, in my opinion, it's a different style than what I usually write with.

You...don't have to review or read this if you don't want to...I'm even hesitant to send out RRs....I don't know how good this is.... This was pretty much just a venting of my emotions...it's sometimes what I do when I'm down or angry.

Maybe that's why it's a different style? I don't know. The poem wrote itself.

[Adam Lebzo -RonninWarri..]

I feel you, but being jealous should be a factor to push you forward, regardless, liked it much

Thank you for the review. :) I know that it should be something to push you forward, but unfortunately I know some people who see a better anything they're talented at and they stop writing/drawing for a while.

[Adam Lebzo -RonninWarrior-]

don't be one of those!

*sigh* Envy...We all have to painfully go through it.
This is different. It's pure.
Pure emotion.
Lovely write, Dragon.

Ah, thank you! :D I feel like I'm whining when I write stuff like this though....and post it...XD....

[Jeanelle]

haha sometimes whining a little helps. At least your whining isn't annoying ;)

[NathanBlackie]

It's good, i know the feeling of there being a difference to writing with your heart and writing with your head... this is good, don't worry.

Thank you for the thoughtful review. ^^

Aaaaaah. I KNOW MAN. This feeling is really upsetting. But it's not jealousy. It's envy. Jealousy is worse.

I know what you mean. I'm surrounded by bright and sparkling people who's abilities are sky high. It's like they have no limits. They solve the hardest Math problem with ease, can run a mile without breaking a sweat, recite paragraphs totally from memory. And I'm just there and smiling at them and saying what a good job they've done. Yet it really does hurt inside.

This poem truly described the feeling of envy. DON'T YOU DARE DELETE IT OR I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN; GOT IT MADAME?

*hugs you* Good job Sunny. :)

Hehe, thank you Sumayya...^^'....And....Why can't I delete it....? ;___; I feel like I whine when I post writing like this....
