I'm okay,
I have to be ,
for those around me,
I say I'm okay,
yet I know I'm in this void that keeps eating me up,
I smile so much to hide the pain,
that not even a stranger, a friend or mother,
Can see that I'm desperately suffering.
I say I'm okay,
But even saying it hurts me Everytime,
yes, we get used to it but then we don't,
we see ourselves constantly breaking,
As torment of this pretense eats our souls,
and yet we say I'm okay.
Sometimes we try so hard to mean,
we try so hard not to look like the sad depressed friend,
that noone likes to be around,
So we say I'm okay.
just so we can hide the pain.
