I am okay
But you didn’t ask
You were too into
Yourself
To even notice…

I wasn’t

But that’s alright
Really, it is
Because I shy away
From false emotions
What you think
I want to hear

I don’t

My self-esteem
Has been through
Enough
I have made
Peace
With myself
And my God
And that is
Why I am
Okay

Really.

How do I make you hear
Better still, understand
When my words fall
On deaf ears, am I
But a hum, or drone
You have so easily
Tuned out, turned off
Or is it you who simply
Does not care to listen
Muting the sounds
Too full of yourself
To admit wrong
Ignoring the signs
You need help
Or to notice
I am right
Here
