Are You OK



Are you Ok?



Yes I am .



How can I say otherwise?



I can hear your snide remarks,be it on my clothes or the way I look.



Do you know Why?



Did you Ask ?



No one buys for me ,I am told I am not worth it.



I cannot shout,I lack the confidence to speak out .



I am overburdened by Work,to justify my just being alive .



My feelings are always ridiculed ,even by my best ones.



I stammer ,I carry an invisible burden  I can't speak on .



I feel the need to be acknowledged ,for just being me ,the way I am.



Till then,I am really not OK.



Today is World suicide Prevention day and Thriving Thursday put my thoughts across and I could connect with all my WorldPulse sisters and absolutely understand and acknowledge the way we all were feeling.



This sense of  solidarity made the words so easy to flow .
