Phantom of Envy

A girl was standing in front of me, she had a pretty face, wearing beautiful dress and shoes so expensive. A guy adored her, love her and cared for her. She was popular, she was rich and she was intelligent. As I watched her,  my chest tightened and there's needle pricks in my heart.

I clutched my chest and I was gasping, gasping for air. I felt I was being swallowed by darkness, but when I opened my eyes I was at in the ocean, drowning. My lungs slowly filled with water and there's light above, but even how hard I try I could not reach it. Something was pulling me below, and I was screaming although bubbles only came out. I was sinking and drowning, and images of her, kept flashing before me.

 She was standing in front of me, smiling. She had a pretty face, wearing beautiful dress and shoes so expensive. A guy adored her, loved her and cared for her. She was popular, she was rich and she was intelligent. She had everything I wished for and here I was in the depths of the ocean, almost non - existent, and being  swallowed by a phantom.

The phantom that lurks in the shadow, waiting to prey on you. The phantom that would slowly turn you into a monster. The phantom that only you could kill, for it’s the phantom of your own. The phantom that every people had built within themselves.
