Jealous People

Hiding pain behind pride

By Rohitha LankaPublished 8 months ago 1 min read

" Jealous " people

... Sometimes, " pitiful "

Because.. no matter how " good life " is

... can't find the " point " to be satisfied "

Some people.. have " dark side "

... can't tell anyone

So.. try to create " outstanding points "

to.. cover up " inferiority complex "

Because.. they value themselves " low "

So they try.. to act " noble "

But.. " hurt ".. every time

... when they see, who has

what... they lack

" Jealous people " like.. to compare

Addicted.. to " competition "

Feel good, if you are.. above anyone

Some people use " confidence "

Hide.. " weakness "

Because.. they are afraid of " losing "

So.. dare to " exchange " everything

But.. in the end " Jealous people "

Never.. do better than anyone

Because.. the more they want to " win "

The more " lose..!! "

    This really hits home. Jealousy often masks deeper struggles we don’t see. Thanks for putting these feelings into words so clearly.
