Contest: Jealousy

TW implied murder

There was a new glint behind my eyes

you had no clue

that it signalled the start of a wildfire

'cause it was easier to pretend you didn't see the smoke.

Jealousy accumulated like gunpowder,

Envy like fuel,

but it was a kiss that lit my heart on fire

and rigged it to explode.

You stole my love from me

when you took their hand.

You glanced across the room at me

as you danced with someone

who should have been mine -

who will be mine now that you're gone.

Am I really to blame

for the blood I supposedly spilled?

Is it truly, completely my fault,

that you died in the fire

that you set inside me

when you took their hand?

Because when you kissed them,

You lit the fuse

and it burned faster than you could scream.
