Are you okay?

The false crinkles that bound your eyelids,
After having gibberish pretentious giggles,
And when you say you are okay,
Your whole world seems to be a mirage of desert.


Your eyes speak louder than your words,
Your smile is a rare beauty I get to see,
And when you say you are okay,
Your whole world seems to be a trap.


The way you hold on to my hand,
Refusing to let go for you love me so much,
And when you say you are okay,
Your whole world is captive you are trying to escape.


You don't show or tell it to anyone...

You want to fade away as someone's dream,
You want to run away and hide in the dark,
You want to be here and so much want not to..


And when you say you are okay,
Your whole world is falling apart.

And even after knowing all this, I ask you, 

"Are you okay?".


"Are you, my love?".
