I'll Be Fine
I'm fine.
That's the first line.
Fake a smile,
Then I find myself on the bathroom tile.
I cry, until I can't cry no more.
I feel like something just tore.
Run a mile in my shoes,
I promise you, you’d lose.
Who do I blame these feelings upon?
Where's that shoulder to rest on?
I live in a cave,
I just always want to cave.
Funny thing is, I always have to be brave.
Never to show how much I am afraid.
All the fake happiness starts to fade.
This hollowness,
The feeling that I’m so much less.
These insecurities are taking over me.
These thoughts are locked in my head with a key.
Who am I?
Where am I?
These fears,
I feel my face, its wet from all the tears.
I wish it was so simple.
Then I start to fimble.
Don't do anything stupid,
Don't do anything stupid.
A voice inside my head
It keeps repeating itself, as I lay in bed.
It’s reaping over me,
Like a shadow that won't go away.
But I simply say,
I'm okay.
