How are you?

My emotions are clouded in a dusky hue,

I reach out to identify their shape,

but they keep slipping from my grasp,

So I can’t answer when you ask,

how are you?

how are you?

/

I function physically from door to door,

with a face capable of it all,

but behind this facade is a detachment,

where true emotions are absent,

So I can’t answer when you ask,

how are you?

how are you?

/

Mentally I grapple with reason,

to determine where it went wrong.

From blue to purple my palette changed,

a brush wielded by someone else deranged.

So I won’t answer when you ask,

but I will politely return the question,

how are you?

how are you?

I can't format reddit posts because I am a goon, hence the use of '/' to provide a gap.
