In the stillness of the night, a whisper grows,
A shadow deep within my heart, it flows.
Envy’s touch, a bitter cold embrace,
In the moon’s soft glow, it finds its place.

Your laughter echoes in the quiet air,
A melody that brings me to despair.
The green-eyed monster, silent, yet so loud,
In its grip, my thoughts are tightly bound.

I see the smiles you share, the joy so pure,
And in my chest, the ache becomes obscure.
The love you give, the warmth I crave,
Jealousy’s chains, I am its slave.

Yet in the dawn, as light begins to break,
I yearn for peace, for my own sake.
To cast aside this shadow, to be free,
From the silent echoes of jealousy.
