When I say

When I say...
I'm fine, I'm actually calling out for help
I'm screaming at the sky that cursed me
I'm afraid to be myself I push it deep down
I'm lonely from being cheated on, I'm crying on the inside looking for hope
I'm happy I'm faking to be left alone
I'm fine I'm hoping that my family and friend's see that I'm not that strong as they think I am... I need love and support
When I say I'm fine I mean I'm not okay

Sorry it's been so long, working in retail this time of year is draining... A quick note that came to me

Words that speak to most, if not all, of us. "Fine" is what we say when we feel vulnerable and don't trust whose who inquire. It's us recoiling, drawing in, to protect ourselves. You've summarized it nicely here in a few brief words. Thank you for sharing.
