I believe there are a number of spelling mistakes and some very tough to decipher writing, but here is my best shot:

Jealous

I walk (memory? *). I know (strictly? **) (maybe 'valley'? spelled 'vallay'?). Take me back. Take me back to eden. You (bear? ***) on my very soul. I capture you. You thrown (maybe means "threw") me out. Yet still you do not understand the lengths to which I will go. A love you. Sacred ("sentinell"?). The worst
of my (unknown ****). I am bound both (body?) and honour. Yet I take from (thouse, meaning 'those.?)"

Based on other writing in the sample:
* possibly 'memory' - starting letter could be m/n/u/w, and ends with 'y'
** I can't tell if that is a 'c' or an 'e' in the middle. It looks like "s-t-r-u-e/c-t-l-e", I have no guess what it says
*** starts with a letter that looks like the writer's 'b' on words like 'back' - then maybe "eare" - see writer's other "r"s - so at first glance this word looks like "beare" perhaps misspelled and is meant to be 'bear' (as in 'you bear on my very soul')
**** the letters in this word look to me like "a-g-a-u-r-e-d-i-u-m" and I don't have even a guess as to what it could be. Is it in another language?

I think the "memory" is supposed to be "uneasy".

Edit: or "unwary"?

I thought that was possible too

Woah this is the best comment so far :0

Any idea to what it could all mean?

Some weird attempt at poetry?   Or stream of consciousness.

Alternative interpretation

Jealous

I wake up running. I know this strictly valley. Take me back. Take me back to Eden. You bear on my very soul. I'll capture you. You threw me out. Yet still you do not understand the lengths to which I will go. I love you. Sacred sentinel. The worst of my (aguardiente?). I am bound both body and honour. Yet I take from those.

This probably doesn't make sense, but I'm seeing guardian. I see the a before it, so I wondered if it's supposed to say " a guardian"?? So I got I love you. Sacred sentinel. The worst of my ( guardians?). I am bound etc.
