You never asked but I’m okay.

I often find myself full of words,

words I’d never find the chance to say

You never asked but I’m alive.

Through the pain and suffering,

I’ve found a way to survive

You never asked but I’m aware.

I’ve danced with my shortcomings

enough times to even care

You never asked but I’m growing.

His love has changed me,

consuming me without knowing

You never asked but I’m relieved.

Without pain I’d never know love,

when love is exactly what I need
