How Are You?

How are you?
I’m losing my identity
When it comes to me
Happiness is an obscenity

How are you?
I’m living a lie
Trying to figure out
When my real self died

How are you?
I’m going out on a limb
Poor you if I die
Can’t cater to your whim

How are you?
I’m shrouded in stares
Feeling out of place
Is the cross that I bare

How are you?
Do you even care?
Even if I told you,
all you would do is stare

How are you?
I’m losing the game
Searching for unknown answers
Wondering if anyone feels the same

How are you?
I’m losing what’s mine
Oh, and by the way
I’m just fine
