Don’t Ask Me How I’m Doing

Don’t ask me how I’m doing today.

I’m sad.

I’m tired.

I’m leaving.

It’s time to say goodbye.

I don’t feel cheerful.

I don’t feel excited.

Right now I just want to stay here.

I usually love adventure, but not today.

Today I want peace, blue clouds and sunshine.

I don’t want to feel this ache, this fear.

I’m leaving this place.

I’m leaving my friends.

I’m going to a new place.

I’m going to new friends.

In time I will feel better

But today I just feel sad.

So please don’t ask me how I’m doing today.

You might not like the answer.
