it's all good

I am absolutely fine, 
Am not an oyster finding a grain of sand
Rubbing against me, scraping my skin
Hurting me all over 
I am me, and I am fine
I am not an earthworm to writhe in pain
At the sprinkle of sand burning my skin
Carving the life out of me
I am me, and I am fine
I am not a deer, with a broken leg by a trap
In seething pain, anxious of imminent slaughter
Or being skinned alive 
I am me, and I am fine
I am not a caterpillar, trapped in a cocoon 
To be boiled alive for my silk
In a scalding inescapable slow death 
I am me, and I am fine
I am good at being fine my love
