The Green Eyed Monster
I am possessed by the green eyed monster
I don’t mean to be
I’m happy with my work
Honestly
I’m possessed by the green eyed monster
Though I salted and locked the doors
It slipped in anyways
Perhaps while I snored.
I’m possessed by the green eyed monster
It’s an insidious beast.
Admiration turns to Envy and Despair
So it can feast.
I’m possessed by the green eyed monster
It whispers lies in my ears
As I work
Until I can’t see through my own tears
I’m possessed by the green eyed monster
You’re pathetic it cries
Showing me others’ work
A bit of my soul dies
I’m possessed by the green eyed monster
You’re horrible at art
It laughs manically
Hurting my heart
I’m possessed by the green eyed monster
But now I fight back
It whispers the lies
As I ready my attack
I was possessed by the green eyed monster
It is a dangerous thing
But man, did I love it
When I made it scream
I was possessed by the green eyed monster
I may be an amateur at art
But that doesn’t matter
As long as I have heart.
I was possessed by the green eyed monster
Note the past tense here
I am better than that.
I have faced my fears
I was the possessed by the green eyed monster
It’s dead now
But it can always come back
But now I know how
To send it to the rack.
But, sometimes it's hard. to scroll the front page of dA and not feel a bit jealous and a bit of rage.
