how am i, really?

Poetrydark night of the soul
Written By Zachary Phillips
 

how am i really?

do you mean in general
or in the moment of response?

that brief moment
when we must somehow summarise
contrasting the darkness of the shadow
against the brilliance of the light
with just one word

i’m ‘good’
you?

This poem is from the book Poetry from a Dark Night of the Soul
