Living in envy is lonely
Lonelier than nights of nothing
Days and months of nothing new,
Particular
Envy envokes a welcoming greeting,
An invitation to swoon personal desires,
A fascination
Until,
The story ends, the picture fades,
Their eyes cast down, the perfume,
Dissipated
What is left beyond that moment?
Many days, many minutes spent
Inhaling the sweet nectar
Then the moment is gone
Many hours, many minutes go by
And I can't stand but to reach for another
To ease so habitually,
A craving
Envy is a cigarette,
Envy is the nothingness in between.
