Jealousy
you're perfect in my eyes
no visible flaws
every curve of your body
every thought in your mind
why can't i be like you?
for that's all i want
i look into myself
with hatred and contempt
why are you as you are
and not as i am
and why can't i be like you?
the smiles you receive
contrast with the laughter that comes my way
i am forever destined to be known as "the girl who hangs around you"
not the girl i know i am inside
the girl i long to show you
why are you as you are, so perfect
why can't i be like you?
