It’s going to be okay…

Is it?

Is being stranded in the streets

Looking desperately

For a taxi to go home

At 12 pm

Is it really okay?

Everything is under control…

Is it?

When you’re stuck inside

A small elevator

Filled with people…

People you don’t know…

For more than an hour…

Is it really under control?

I’m fine…

Am I?

Is being lost in a maze

A sea of strangers

That separates you from your parents

Am I fine with that?

It’s okay…

Are you sure?

Is it really okay?

To let go…

To let go of your dreams…

Your goals…

The ones you love…

Is it really okay?

We all lie…

To others and ourselves…

We say things we don’t mean

We do things that are unnecessary

Are these really okay?

We only know when it hits us

Right between the eyes…

The final answer is…

…no…
