sad poems

some poems are unhappy
sadness need not be sought
or brought out as the printed words

let’s leave sad sleep in peace, shall we.
we’ll do other things. women can watch the men
and man can dream of girls

we will live quietly, wait and have fun
enjoy the silence and the sun
sadness will seek us out soon enough

Sad has its place, as a way to process, and transcend, though I understand the desire to leave it be. I agree with enjoying silence and the sun, and the beauty of quiet moments.
