#WritcoStoryPrompt121
Write a short story with the word "Jealousy" as the main theme.

Jealousy, a bitter seed sown,
In hearts where discontent is known.
It creeps and whispers with venomous tongue,
A poison that taints, where love once clung.

In shadows it lurks, casting its spell,
Turning friendships into a bitter farewell.
Eyes filled with envy, hearts filled with strife,
Jealousy consumes, devouring life.

But let us rise above this toxic fray,
And cast jealousy's chains far away.
For in celebrating others' success,
We find our own happiness, no less.

Let gratitude bloom, like a flower in bloom,
Replacing jealousy with a joyful tune.
For in lifting others, we too shall rise,
Leaving jealousy behind, to the skies.

So let us embrace a heart that's free,
From the shackles of jealousy's decree.
In kindness and love, our spirits shall soar,
Jealousy defeated, forevermore.
Jealousy, a fire that burns within,
A poison that taints the hearts of kin.
It breeds resentment, consumes the soul,
Leaving us empty, never whole.

In its grip, we covet what's not ours,
Blinded by envy, like darkened hours.
We compare and compete, losing sight,
Of our own blessings, shining bright.

But let us break free from this jealous plight,
Embrace gratitude, in its purest light.
For in counting our blessings, we find,
A peace that jealousy can never bind.

Let kindness and love guide our way,
Replacing jealousy with empathy's sway.
For in lifting others, we rise above,
The chains of envy, boundless in love.

So let us release the grip of jealousy's hold,
Embrace contentment, like stories untold.
For in finding joy in what we possess,
Jealousy fades, leaving only happiness.
Jealousy, a green-eyed beast,
That steals our joy, disturbs our peace.
It feeds on comparison and desire,
Fueling a never-ending fire.

In its grip, we covet and resent,
Blinded by envy, discontent.
We yearn for what others possess,
Ignoring our own happiness.

But let us break free from its snare,
And find contentment everywhere.
For in gratitude, we shall find,
A heart at ease, a peaceful mind.

Let kindness be our guiding light,
Replacing jealousy with delight.
For when we celebrate others' success,
Our own hearts find true happiness.

So let go of jealousy's bitter sting,
And embrace the joy that blessings bring.
For in love and gratitude we'll find,
A heart at peace, a tranquil mind.
