another poem i wrote!! ^^

Meraki

I’m feeling misanthropic.
I’m tired of trying to mend these sick love stories.
These callous humans wound me—
and it’s my own viridity they shame and blame.

I apologize for my oversensitivity.
I want to retreat, to halter,
with no words from others.
But those desires are short-lived.

Soon, I realize—
they’re only delusions,
illusions of things being more
than they ever really were.

So short-felt.
So faint.

Still…
I want to act with meraki—
to create, to love, to live
with soul.
