Computer Jealousy ©

Your jealousy it hurts me,
it hurts me really bad.
I do not understand it
and makes me really sad.

You go on the computer,
talk to who you will.
I do not go complaining
as my trust you do instill.

I go on the computer,
you accuse me of bad things.
I do not understand you
as I don't do anything.

I am usually sleeping,
when you are up at night.
I don't know who you talk to
but it really is alright.

You talk to who you want,
but I am not allowed,
jealousy takes over you,
I want to scream out loud

Why do you do this to me?
as I love you so.
I would never hurt you
but your trust is not on show.

I sit and cry all morning,
not getting any sleep,
because you do not trust me,
my feelings are so deep.

Jealousy is consuming you,
I just wonder why,
as I will always trust you
until the day I die.

Well, I've seen this scenario played out more than once. I think this will definitely reach others who are dealing with the same thing. Of course, I believe there are MANY.

Good work, Anne!

In most cases the person who is jealous is the one who is cheating.

This one sign of him trying to be controlling would have me running for the door. Nothing good happens after that.

A great emotional write.**

WEllllllll, Ann, Everthing that could be said has been said. Mutual trust is importnant. True love is based on trust. I would not want to be in the shoes of the narrator it sounds painful. You did another good one to chalk up in the books as far as getting the emotion of tha narrator accross.

Anne, rhyming or not, your poem comes from the heart and it shows in the writing. All good relationships are based on mutual trust, but lack of trust doesn't mean either party has been disloyal. Jealousy is an irrational beast (and love isn't much better, thank God), so the two of them in tandem makes for some pretty rocky times.

Aside for an extra syllable or two, this was a great read. Things will be better, friend!

Written from anger Ron, not intended to rhyme, i Think. Anne seems to be spitting at someone here..:) Anne darling, the lover of the character here is projecting when he is jealous. the son of a bitch is transfering hsi guilt, or justifying, eother way, a toxic situation, i say.

Thanks for the read,
Roy
