I'm Fine

I always lie to myself.

Tell myself "I'm fine."

But I always forget that one word that makes a difference in that lie.

I'm not fine.

I say it all the time yet nobody seems to notice.

The question with multiple answers, "Are you ok?"

No.

But I still say the words that make it ok, "I'm fine."

The biggest lie by every boy and girl, man and woman.

"I'm fine."

We all say it to escape the pain we feel.

But it is always there, no matter what we do.
