Honestly!

Honestly!

A Poem by motley poetry (special k)
"

True feelings that society warps.

"
How are you guys tonight?
No, really how are you guys tonight?
It's funny how such a simple question can't be answered honestly.
Like, think about it.
When I asked, none of you shouted
DEPRESSED
IN DEBT
HUNGRY
Because society and the world we live in taught us not to share our thoughts and feelings in spite of hearing what might actually be the truth.
That's the s**t you save for your therapist, or your mom if she's still around.
Because no one wants to hear you ramble about how you haven't eaten in 3 days, medical bills out the a*s and how long you've spent in bed not sleeping.
Oh, sorry, I meant I'm good. and you?
