How are you? the age old question when we were younger we were trained to say good thank you how are you? politely staring up How are you? the age old question when we are teenagers we say i'm fine but how are you? hiding our emotions bottling them up How are you? the age old question when we are grown we say doing well how are the kids? But its all an illusion none of us are really doing fine none of us want to know how your kids are doing and we are tired of polite silent stares so i dare you next time someone ask the age old question How are you? tell them truth release your bottled up emotions and let them roam and ponder and then you will be free

How Are You
How are you? the age old question when we were younger we were trained to say good thank you how are you? politely staring up How are you? the age old question when we are teenagers we say i'm fine but how are you? hiding our emotions bottling them up How are you? the age old question when we are grown we say doing well how are the kids? But its all an illusion none of us are really doing fine none of us want to know how your kids are doing and we are tired of polite silent stares so i dare you next time someone ask the age old question How are you? tell them truth release your bottled up emotions and let them roam and ponder and then you will be free
