Happy poem

I've never written a happy poem.

I've tried, and stopped.

It always felt fake, cheesy.

I've come to realize that I do not need to express the things that make me happy in order to write a happy poem.

I do not need to make metaphors for the joys in life.

I have joys.

I know this.

I have yet to write a happy poem.

But I feel happy.
