My tough exterior is deceiving
Inside Iโm screaming
Can you read between the line
No really.. Iโm fine
Chinhita Bose
She asked am I okay
I said I’m fine
Alas ! She could not readย
between the line.
Rinku Shah
Be there
If you really care,
So people can share!
Read between the lines,
Pay attention to the signs…
When someone says โIโm fineโ.ย ย
Laila Ardiente
I’m smiling and pretendingย
that Iโm fine,
but Iโm dyingย
and struggling behind.

The words hideย
what the heart holdsย
so the pain stays contained

You show only that partย
which keeps them happy
Vyvienne Chamberlain
A standard answerย
to a general platitudeย
asked by anyoneย
who doesnโt wantย
to hear the truth.
Sarrveshwaran
Depression in discretion.
I will never let it showย
in my expression.
Although I feel low,
ย a happy smile I would show.
Your happiness is mine,
ย and that’s why when you ask,ย
“Are you okay?”ย
I reply,” I’m fine”ย
Everytime.
Rinku Shah
Look for the sign
Behind the โIโm fineโ
Embroiled in emotions,
Thereโs such a commotion!ย
Felicia Holmes
My smile is not a lieย
I use to hide,
Itโs an escape from allย
that goes on inside.ย ย
Mary Kirkpatrick
In the discrepancy
between what you say
And what you think
Truth is the missing link.ย
Sherry Greene
I show the worldย
exuberance, but
Oh, what darknessย
hovers near behind
What you see,ย
my caring, kindly friendย
It’s nothing like what isย
in my mindย
Debra Pry
If you could only hearย
the cry on the inside,
When the outsideย
looks perfectly normal.
Prasupta Roy
Miseries are many
But the world cares for any
So I bury my agony
Deep inside me.
Sabiha Nikhat
With all those chaosย
driving him mad,ย
His only comfortย
was her Concern.
Sam Garrett
I’m fine, hidesย
a million of lies!
Sulekha Pande
I’m fine
The biggest lie,
people choose to overlook..
