What do you Say?

What do you Say?

A Poem by kyam
"

When people ask

"
What can I say when people ask
"How are you doing?"
What can I say
Can I obey?

Be kind for them
Let them win
Not scream with pain
Want to not regain

Want to turn away
Want to not pay
My respect to you
Have to think it through

Have to feel at all
Not to toss that ball
Not to think about it now
Not knowing why or how

She had to go on that one day
She had to leave this earth that way
Not by her choice, but God's will be done
In the face of the rising sun

Strangled and painful and tearful no doubt
Nothing I want to really talk about
Nothing I ever want to really know
It hurt me, you see to my very soul

But I will smile and be cordial that way
And try to be good to you and say
What ever comforts you is the right thing to do
That's who I am and God want me to be through and through
