Qurrathul Ain

THE SIN OF JEALOUSY

When I believe,

Myself to be a saint,

I imagine a white plain.

 

Which is when,

Something brilliantly seeps into view,

Flowing in and staining the sheet,

Burning red.

 

When I believe,

Myself to be truly happy for someone,

Although I see no force of fire nearby,

The blood red sheet catches fire.

 

It burns slowly,

Licking up the edges first,

Making its way up towards the center.

 

Which is when I realize,

I should have stopped,

The flow of red earlier.

 

Because it is,

The centuries\' old sin,

The reason why The Devil,

Was disgraced in the first place,

The Sin of Jealousy.
