A Heart in Turmoil

Heart aching,

Tears daring.

Can't stop the pain.

Can't avoid the pressure.

Nothing seems to be working

I can't stop myself from thinking about it

It's taking control of me

'JEALOUSY' – A word that is attempting to consume me.

I don't seem to have control of it anymore.

Why can't it just go away?

Why can't I stop caring about him?

I always deny my feelings for him, why can't it really be so?

Why does it seem difficult?

Why does it seem impossible?

Why is it threatening my peace of mind?

How can I move on from it?

I've searched through my heart and mind, and the only time I find solace is when I acknowledge my feelings for him.
