Envious Ways These Days

poem by: Quiana Beco
Written on Oct 20, 2016

Why be envious to your sisters and brothers?
Why can't you give good compliments to others?
Why when a person come to you for help?
You give them the wrong advice 
And keep the right ones to yourself
It’s not only when your having fun 
You'll need them then
And just like a abandoned child
They'll leave you stuck
Hurting alone confused
Not knowing you have God to lean on
To hurt, to misuse, to mislead to abuse
Is he way they get down 
And will do it with a smile
There like bad habits you just can't shake
Envious people 
Boy are they so fake
I guess that's the way it goes with envious people
There mission and goal is to deceive you
So don't be surprised with there envious ways
That's to be expected from people these days

This is so true, we have people like this in our own families...well written.
Geoffrey Brewer commented:
Some good thoughts well expressed. But check the difference between 'your' and 'you're'; between 'there', 'their' and they're.
