Stair Well

You okay? he asked 

In the strange isolation of the stairwell, and I didn’t answer 

With the truth

But I heard, and the tears pricked my eyes

I was fine, I was fine

Somewhere between the voice 

And its lonely echo, I was fine

Very short but I got what you felt and were saying. Nice poem. I look forward to reading your short story "The School Bus" soon.
