"I'm Fine."A Poem by T. Edana Talbott "I'm fine,” - I say it all the time. “I’m fine,” - a small phrase... But the biggest lie. “I’m fine,” - maybe, in due time. “I’m fine,” - I said with shame... As if it were a crime. “I’m fine,” - I’ll say it ‘till I die. “I’m fine,” - a false phrase... A simple warning sign. “I’m fine,” - I say, so I don’t cry. "I’m fine,” - said so lamely... I no longer wish to try, To play this game To lie each day To act as if I’m fine.
