Your eyes glare
without a sound.
I see your envy
wrapped inside.
Everyone knows
your feelings
before your snide remarks
and hurtful lies.
Your variable nature
hides and waits
for the time to strike
down into the gutter
of baseless rumor
and bullying ways.
Success of others
burrows under your skin,
steals the happiness
you long to find.
Imprisoned in a cage of steel
you push others away
with a judging eye
and spiteful wit.
Worrying about everyone else
keeps you in a place of darkness
unable to change and grow,
your freedom an elusive dream.
