They say that Jealousy is green
Well, I disagree
I believe that it is a livid hot red that makes you forget how to cry
It turns your insides out, the skin on the back of your head tightens and burns to the touch
I've recently felt this Jealousy
His girlfriend had a baby
I left to go for a walk, once I heard, and I was livid
I cooked alive inside
I didn't know how to cry
I wanted to vomit, but couldnt
I went for a walk, in the rain, in the mist
Long ago, when his girlfriend was just his girlfriend, NOT the mother of his child, I abandoned him for another
He didn't know, and still doesn't know, that I existed
But the Other is charming
The Other is sweet
The Other is strong
The Other loves me
The Other does not exist
At least not in the Real World
The Other knows me, but only in my Mind
But the red hot Jealousy still makes my flesh crawl in apoplectic rage
He shall know pain
He shall know much pain
He will languish in the dungeons of my Memory
Never again can he be brought up in conversation
Or I will feel the need to taste his blood in my foaming mouth
I shall seek revenge by ripping his flesh apart in my Jealous jaws
His and his new family's flesh
I feel it when I close my eyes
The red hot rage returns
And my boiling blood rushes past my ears and I cant hear a word anyone is saying
I don't think in situations like these
I just feel
I feel the red hot Jealousy running, coursing, surging through my veins
If I had strong powers, I would have him struck by lightning
If only
If only
If only I didn't give a s***
Then I wouldn't feel it
The red hot Jealousy that comes back each time I think about it
Why not just STOP thinking about it, you ask?
It is not as easy as that
First, I must visualize him getting mauled alive by rabid weasels
Then I must hex him
If that doesn't work, then I must go and kill him under the pale moonlight
Preferably, where his darn girlfriend can see it
I will pour oil or whiskey all over him, then I will light a match, he will ask me why it has to end this way, and I will say 'Because you are a terrible person, and I am saving you' then I will set him aflame
Then I will realize too late what I have done, and I will set MYSELF aflame
And his loser girlfriend, and the stupid baby, will die out of losing the will to live
Somehow, in the middle of it all, I will get something out of it, though I'm still not sure what
I guess I'll have to work out the details sometime
But anything I do will bring back that red hot Jealousy
Will turn my insides out
Will make the skin at the back of my head tighten and burn to the touch
Will make me forget how to cry
Will land me in prison
Or some equally Hellish place
But I won't care
Because in Death and in Life, Revenge can be as sweet as honey
This time will make all the difference
They say that Jealousy is green
Well, I disagree

Yes we have all been jealous at one point or another. Don't let it consume you though because jealousy only hurts yourself. Great write. I have been there.

I you keep thinking that way you'll probably give yourself a stroke or something. You should find someone else and just forget about the loser.
Its a great poem, however.

This is a great and vivid description of the dimension of jealousy that can take over to the point to imsanity.
Why not use it creatively, - like a sort of "Night of the Spirit" to be dwelled in and endured, for the maturation of soul, and to exit therefrom ever so much richer from the experience.
Great poem.
Many can identify with it.
Blessings
