A Poem about Envy

Jealousy is the feeling of being bitter and unhappy because of another’s advantages, possessions or luck. This poem is about my alter ego, a poem dedicated to myself for being envious sometimes to those who shine brighter than me. I know this is not good that is why I am starting to get rid of this. This is a piece to experience me.

I want to be a star

just like him,

surrounded by admirers

and shouting fans

I want to be a model

just like him,

with the bulky body

and fancy outfits

I want to be a player

just like him,

easy go lucky

and can get everything

I want to be a singer

just like him,

spotted by spotlights

and applaud by a mob

I want to be an endorser

just like him,

watch by viewers

and followed by paparazzi

I want to be rich

just like him,

can buy everything

and travel anywhere

I want to be just like him;

Perfect life and perfect look

That’s why I admire him;

For to be like him is everything
