How Do Feel Today? Poem by Avik Datta Gupta

Are you happy to be sad?
Perhaps you do, if people care
Comfort the sad yet happy souls
Comforting the comfort zone
That saddens with happiness
Which is just not enough
So are we sad to be happy?
Is comfort our actual discomfort?
Is it grief that we only need?
To discover what happiness was
Once upon a time..when we were sad
Happiness was just a step away
So we took the step and crossed the line
To find ourselves in grief
Simply because we werent happy enough
Not as much as the step had promised
But happiness was just another step away
So as we stepped on for happiness
We moved quite a few miles in life
To realise, being sad was better
Are you happy to be sad?
Perhaps you don't
Since people dont care
Analysing and auditing
How many cared or liked their griefs
Just like you, another lunatic in the crowd
