All is well?

Let's pretend today again,
You ask me, how I am?
And I will say, all is well.
But when you hear 'all is well' 
Don't take my words as they are
Ask me again and again and again
I may share my grief and sadness and pain,
Ask me how I am?
Ask me, when I am drunk or angry or sad,
Or all of them.
Then you may hear some bitter truth 
which I do not  tell, 
Not to you and not to parents and not to friends 
Things which are known 
to none of them.
I may say all is not well
In fact, nothing is well.
Let's pretend today again,
You ask me, how I am?
And I will say, all is well.
