Envy Poem by Alexandra Motschmann

One of the most potent causes of unhappiness
Additional inflicting misfortune on others
It begins with the almost frantic sense of emptiness
Something within the person that bothers

It occurs when a person lacks another's superior achievements
and starts to deal with negative emotions, like resentments
Insane of course but for many humans an inevitable reality
A lack of self-esteem and the interest of humanity

Self-destructive and not supportive for a better life
A freezing bath in which miserable people dive

Feeling pity for those who feel inferior and cheap
A mental disorder inside, profound and deep.
