The Jealous ones

#280 The jealous ones


Jealousy is such an ugly trait
it makes people feel inadequate
makes others simply hate
hate everything you do
they cannot find a kind word
to say about you
they want to get the details
so they can compare
they don’t wish you good things
just hope you fail


holding jealousy in their heart
until the friendship finally breaks
then you realise
it wasn’t real
it was all fake
and when you thought they had your back
they really ain’t
waiting for you to fall
keeping in touch
so they could just recall
to whomever will listen
whoever you might know
to tell them that your achievements
aren’t that special
and there is something  they should know


all that glistens is not gold
life is good for those that are bold
so continue on
don’t let the jealous ones
hold you down
for when you are on your way up
they will still be on the ground
still masking your steps

still chatting behind your back
