A Jealous Paramour

Jealous of the eyes

that everyday savor your grace..

Jealous as their gaze

gets blessed by your eye's tender embrace...

Begrudging every smile,

every warmth you freely share,

I envy time and distance

that leaves my heart in deep despair.

In the crowd of your admirer,

I crave the ultimate part,

As i stand a mere silent spectator,

jealous of every beating heart...

I want to be a secret paramour

residing in your laughter's spree,

Like a jealous sky,

yearning to touch the gentle sea.
