Jealousy

by Oscar Dack aged 9

There’s a peculiar state of mind,
where anger is combined,
with thoughts and dreams you wanted.

Wishes of things you longed for,
that strikes you to your very core
and clouds your mind and judgement.
The unfortunate beings
who take the burden upon their shoulders
will strive to lift the curse.

But has fate decided to lift it
or will it live on until you fulfil it?

    Super Poem Oscar.
    Jealousy can incorporate so many powerful emotions that can indeed cloud your judgement at times. And it’s hard to see a path that leads beyond, but some times it can only be your feet that finds the way out.
    Well done, I look forward to reading more from you.
