Jealous
I’m not jealous of her,
I’m jealous that she was able to experience you before I did.
I’m not jealous of her,
I’m jealous that you thought she was the most beautiful thing in the world once.
I’m not jealous of her,
I’m jealous she got to hold your hand, hear your heartbeat, inhale your scent, breathe your air, all before I did.
I’m jealous that your souls intertwined before ours. I’m jealous that your future with her was planned before ours.
I’m not jealous of her.
