Happiness Overused: A Poem

Is happiness overused?   

The word and the concept.   

Do we spend too much time thinking about happiness?   

Or too little.   

Are we interested in other people’s happiness?   

Or just our own.   

Do we even care about how others feel?   

Or just pretend.   

Will it be this way to the end?   

Or just now.
