They ask how I'm doing
I can read the concern
Written on their faces
When I only reply
That I'm doing fine
"Just fine?" They ask
With a sympathetic smile
"Yes, just fine."
I'm not happy
And I'm not sad
It's not black
And it's not white
I'm somewhere in the middle
The lines being blurred
I've just become
N U M B
