I Dont Like People

Sometimes, I don't like people very much.
They are too selfish,
Too busy to
Actually see the world around them.
They fail to see the birds flying high
Above the beautifully wooded trees,
Too ignorant to see the beauty of rain,
Because to them
It means more traffic
And flooded roads.
Oh, when did we become like this?
Always searching for more
In the wrong paths?
Always relying on money and fame
To bring happiness into our lives,
But end up ruining it
With depression and hollow filled days?
(And when did paper have so much value, anyway?)
When did we start to avoid
Being grateful for the things we have,
And replace it with
Being greedy for the things we don't?
Oh, humans;
When will we finally see
The destruction
That we are causing?

Anyways, I hope you all have had a great day. Right now, for me, it is 11:00 at night and I  have to get up early tomorrow morning... so sweet dreams, I love you all🌍

|| question:||
What is your favorite place to write, read, or relax after a long  day?

|| answer:||
Probably at my windowsill in my bedroom, mostly because I get to look out into a beautiful view of the trees and sky, ( my backyard is basically a forest) and it gives me inspiration for poetry, especially when I have writers block.
