"I'm fine," she says when her heart is being torn in half
"I'm fine," she says when her tears are forced back in
"I'm fine," she says when she wants to scream in anger
"I'm fine," she says when she knows she's not
"I'm fine," she says knowing no one cares enough to press
"I'm fine," she says hurt when she sees no one is concerned
"I'm fine," she says wanting to die alone in the stars of the night
"I'm fine," she says when she's really not but no one cares so why should she
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but smiles instead and laughs it off
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but doesn't want to be seen as an attention seeker
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but doesn't want to bore people with her problems
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but instead tries to keep from crying
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but knows that no one cares about her problems
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but she can't trust anyone anymore.
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but she knows she is alone in her life
"I'm not fine," she wants to say but she doesn't want to be seen as weak
She laughs it off and says, "I'm fine. How about you?" She says, "I'm fine" when her heart is aching and cracking in the middle.
