A very apt depiction of jealousy, @scrawly! Somehow, your description made me think of the lyrics of a song called Chelsea Monday by Marillion:
Catalogue princess, apprentice seductress
Hiding in her cellophane world in glitter town
Awaiting the prince in his white Capri
Dynamic young Tarzan courts the bedsit queen
She's playing the actress in this bedroom scene
She's learning her lines from glossy magazines
Stringing all her pearls from her childhood dreams
Auditioning for the leading role on the silver screen
Patience my tinsel angel, patience my perfumed child
One day they really love you, you'll charm them with that smile
But for now it's just another Chelsea Monday
Chelsea Monday
That is a cute lyrics, some people are so good at combining words to play together nicely.
Thank you cogi ^_^.
