Are you ok?

Are you ok?
I don't know am I?
What's the definition of ok?
See there's always something, whether it's a small cut, or me just not feeling like I'm good enough
And to me life is rough and I'm trying to act tough
But when I pick up that knife 
When I make that cut, because I feel empty and like I'm not good enough
That's when I start to shake and that when I know I just can't fake it anymore
And I just can't take it anymore when people ask me if "I'm ok"
That's all it takes for me to break down
For me to feel like I'm drowning but I say "I'm ok" anyway
But really I'm fighting back my tears and try to control my thoughts and fears
While I'm sitting here counting down the days till I can say I'm truly okay.
