Always Okay

In the face of everything
I am okay.
Better than.
And always.
If asked.
Which no one ever does.
I guess by now it's assumed.
I am okay.
Always okay.
In the face of everything.
Loneliness.
Heartbreak.
Hunger.
And pain.
Even when scared.
Scarred.
Healed.
Loved.
And feared.
In courage.
Faith.
Grace.
Confusion.
And hopelessness.
I am okay.
Always okay.
Am I?
Yes.
As far as anyone knows,
I am.
Always okay.
Just ask.
I'll tell you.
But you won't ask.
No one ever does.
So in silence,I am okay.
Always okay.
As far as you know.
In the face of everything.
