an attempt at a whim of rhyming...

I knew from the beginning
I was not the only one.
I really was not bothered,
for we had only just begun.
And then those words were whispered
and I fell in love with you.
I don't know what I was thinking-
thought I could be The One for you?
And when I saw she was still there
my heart did break apart.
Jealousy- an awful thing...
should've known right from the start.
And so here, I'm feeling saddened,
and a little bit depressed.
I don't know what I will say
when this issue will be pressed.
the fault lies in my own hands...
I have done this to myself.
But to do... I do not know-
put my heart back on the shelf?
Call me crazy... call me young...
I will not deny...
I'm jealous that you love her too.
Jealousy, no lie.

Oh yeah. Jealousy can be so ugly. I've always tried to pretend I don't feel it when it rears it's ugly head. I'm sure I'm not fooling anyone. Great poem.
