Envy

I wish I had your memories.

Your time, your friends, your life.

My envy knows no limit and

Touches every facet

Of the day to day doings of

A wannabe.

I've become infested with a sin

That I love to feed.

A parasite that devours my

Mediocrity.

I've felt that things have been

Missing.

Lost though clearly visible.

Something within grasp if only

I would reach.

My time has been wasted away

With what I thought was a

Worthy life.

Only to realize my pinnacles

Of success have faltered

In the presence of my

Addiction to excess.
