I'm fine
...
actually, I'm breaking into pieces

Drastically looking for quick fixes

I'm fine
...
Sometimes I get so worried about

love,

Will my heart truly learn to trust

someone,

To handle my fragile frame with care

I'm fine
...
I silence my thoughts for fear

Of people knowing what's going on

On the inside

I'm fine
...
It's been so many years,

but the scars ,

They still bleed out

I'm fine
...
I might not know what it truly means

To be FINE

But i'll keep telling you

What keeps you off my neck

I'm fine
...
Yeah right I'm far from fine

It's just safer to say

For my sanitys' sake

I'm relatively Fine

But Hey! You best believe

...atleast I feel fine

👣in truth,

I'm lost.

Author's Note : 🍒🍒🍒
Omg!, I missed being on here so much😄. Been really busy with a whole lot lately but soon hopefully balance will be restored.

So what do you think about this piece?

Lately, I have been really thinking more about mental health and the fact that most people don't really know what's going on with alot of people,

"I'm fine" could be = I'm done trying
Or Broken, pained, hurt, dying but I guess we will never really know unless we ask and the person is willing to share.

🌷I know life can be hard but here is a rose for you🌷, just keep fighting and stay happy (lots of virtual hugs😊)

P.s don't forget to comment (an honest opinion about my poems and how I can improve)

Hit the (⭐) If you relate with this piece and maybe if you don't mind we can talk about it , I'm a good listener if you need to rant too☺.

Stay safe✌
