I’m Okay
Then I think I’m okay
it’s a thought I’ll embrace
until the world ignores my plea
mostly so, that’s the mistake
just half way is incomplete
when the doom manifests
because that person says the word
stream of pain manifest
the end result is my dismay
the facade is put to dust
flowing fast through my hands
with the sanity close behind
in the end I’ll compensate
medication by pill or glass
one or both will point the way
now I no longer think
ignorance has replaced
okay and more, swept away.

Good stuff.

medication by pill or glass
