Jealousy spreads in her veins
dark, grimy, moves at the speed of light,
destroys the walls of her veins,
rips,
punctures,
breaks
And
In those same veins,
a deep, boundless love for the same thing she is jealous of
resides,
warm, powerful, bright moves slowly
builds,
supports,
honors
Both:
are genuine only one
comes and goes
love remains even when jealousy is ripping through like a violent tornado
so trust that,
she may be jealous at times,
her love, however, is fiercer,
will be there always,
always.
