Jealousy

How could it be?
You are there
With the person
Who held your heart captive
While I am here
Swallowing every bitterness.

How could it be?
You are there
Adoring her gaze
While here I am
Quietly loving those eyes.

Shouldn't it be that
You're here
Wrapped around my arms
While you flash to me
That very smile
I worship in silence?

Shouldn't it be that
You're here
To hold my hand
Whenever I'm frail?

Shouldn't it be that
You're here
To take away my doubts,
Put off my sorrows,
And turn
Night skies into days?

Shouldn't it be that
You're here
To make me feel
That I am perfect
Beyond all my imperfections
And that I need not
Be Insecure
Because in your eyes
I'm the most beautiful?

But how could this be?
You're there
Somewhere so faraway
Your lips touching hers
While I'm here
Chocking
By the grip of jealousy?

Could it ever be
Me and you
Hands intertwined
Under the moonlit sky?
