My jelousy is hard to contain
It explodes within me

All you see is a smile

Behind that grin
Lies my pain that i suffer

So shes prettier then me
Shes taller
Thinner too

She has charm
She has style
She's Confident

I get this feeling now
Like I should compete
It shouldn't have to be like this

I don't want to lose another one
So many times it's happened before

I feel short
I look fat
I act shy

What do you see in me?
I see what you see in her
But what do you see in me?

Why does it make me jelous?
Why do I want to scream?

She laughs with you
She touches you
I want to slap her face

I get this sinking feeling
Like I'm loosing something

But its not just something
It's the best thing to happen to me

But if thats so
Why do I hurt?

My heart aches
My stomach twrills

I try to change myself
Make you like me more then her

Make you notice me

Is it even worth it?
I know I can't compare

Shes flawless
So beautifull

I want to feel beautifull

This image is printed in my head
Of this perfect body
This perfect face

I ask myself why?
I scold my self
I wonder how come?

So I loose a coupple pounds
Shed a few more tears

Still doesnt notice

Love is making me crazy
It's making me do these things
I'm jumping through hoops
Yet the hoops are on fire

I try to achive perfection
Instead I get a mess

If my waist was a bit smaller
My bust a bit larger
Would you accept me then?

I'm told you're just fine!
You're beautifull

But I can't belive these voices
Love is making me insaine

I break all these mirrors
Beacuse it doesnt matter
I know what I look like

It makes me upset to look at myself

Why must I put myself through this
I can't stop these crazy thoughts
These crazy thoughts from love

Wow. I hate the feeling of jealousy.I have felt it one too may times. You shouldnt change yourself, i dont care if its for love or not.If he dosn't love you for who you are, then i guess its his loss huh! He doesn't deserve you if he is that shallow!
Love always,
