Today I remember
Today I am quiet
Reflective
“I am doing great’
Comes the automatic answer
It springs to my
Lips unbidden
Who of the countless
People that ask
Really want an honest
Answer anyway?
Or has the time to listen?
Who would I place my
Trust in even if there
Were people who really
Wanted real answers?
Today I am not doing great
Today no tears come forth
If I would let them
They would drown me
Today I cry with the
Sky and the trees
The frozen brown ground
The mournful earth
For today I miss you
Today my arms are empty
And today I heard your voice
