I'm Still Surviving

I'M OK

You asked me if

I wanted you to go

Well I can tell you now

the answer is no

Like I always said

and it's true with you

I found someone who

accepts me as I am

Yet helps me become a better

more fulfilled person

You wanted to hear

all of my dreams, hopes, and pains

Although I am reluctant now

because of past

thoughts written

to open this place to him

Pain is a feeling that I have felt

all too many times

before so many times

through out my life

My thoughts spun round

While my hands idle they stay

Emotions are dormant

And the whole time

I say I'm okay

Change is an avoided element

Though unavoidable change

is shown to be

Tears don't flow much

during the drought

and frustrated by efforts

that never came to be
