Three X's Three


how jealousy rears it's ugly head
when you assume, who is in whom's bed
you start the rumors that start to fly
it doesn't matter to you, who you make cry
& it doesn't matter to you if the story is true or not
just another hunk of meat to warm your pot
that green-eyed monster that you've become
is another peice that makes you numb
but remember... what you sow you shall reap
and you shall NEVER obtain the things you seek
untill you make amends three X's three
your dreams and hopes shall not fly free

Powerful point and well put.  Karma always has a way of sneaking up on you when you least expect it.  Very wise writing!

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

jealously...........what a bad shade of green for anyone (including) the Irish to wear!
