This is a poem that came from my thoughts and feelings in second period today

Once they called me
An angel.
Now those who believed it
Would scoff at the idea.

The love that once gave
So much to me,
Has now taken away.

Taken a love that was
Once so much stronger
Than it.

But jealousy can kill,
It can kill any love.
No matter how strong.
For jealousy is
A frustrated, angry love.

A love that would do
Anything for a hope.
Even a false one.

"Give me something!"
It seems to cry, silently,
Voicless,
It cries.
Like a child,
For inside, we are all children.

But my love is too strong.
I cannot let go.
Not for the sake of that cry.
No matter how loud I can
Hear it, and see it in my heart.

For in my heart, I am
A child.
A selfish child.
Chasing the one love I
Want.
No matter who jealousy takes from me.

This love is engraved in my
Heart.
Like a tattoo that never heals.
I will not give in.
I will not let jealousy kill me.
