Dear Jealousy

Dear Jealousy,

Please, be my friend
I will keep you around
When no one else
Will sit with me

Dear Spitefulness,

Please, be my friend
I’ll play games with you
When I don’t understand
The rules the other play by

Dear Indecision,

Please, be my friend
You can hold my hand
So no one else
Will have the chance to hurt me

Dear Hypocrisy,

Please, be my friend
If someone does hurt me
Your kind touch
Makes it go away

Dear Bitterness,

Please, be my friend
We’ll play hind-n-seek
I’ll hide
See if you can find me

Dear Flattery,

Please, be my friend
I’ll run off with you
Every time someone else
Gets too close

Dear Impatience,

Please, be my friend
We can have such good times
Just don’t forget
Who I am

Dear Loneliness,

Please, be my friend
In fact be my best friend
Nothing
Could keep us apart

Dear Depression,

Please, be my friend
I will be your friend too
If you promise me
To not scare my other friends away

Dear Jealousy,

Please, be my friend
When my other friends fail me
I know I’ll always have you
To keep me company
