I'M Fine
I'M Fine
Behind each tired smile
Lie a thousand tears
Unshed in sleepless eyes,
Full of unsaid,unspoken fears.
Pull aside the thick veil of facade
Of everlasting joy and happiness;
There is a stream gently bubbling up
With the broken past pieces.
Behind each confident self
Sits a scared child,
Waiting for someone to hold his hand
And shield him from the murky world outside.
Inside every armour
Of strong head decisions
Are shattered pieces of pure
Trust and faith lying on the floor.
Behind each hesitant eye
Lies an untold story
Of betrayal and neglect:
A dark history.
With each passing day
I struggle to cope
With all the pain and bitterness
Threatening to swallow me up.
Groping past the darkness
Into the dazzling sunshine,
I still manage to lie every single day
That I'm fine, that I'm fine.....
