I'm not doing so well.
I tried to say something,
The words left my mouth,
but I guess they didn't hit.
I am not doing well.
Lately I can't sleep, can't think.
I try to get past it, but it is what it is.
I am not well.
Something is urging me.
I try to avoid it, but the blade calls.
I am well.
I have to be, because without me,
Everyone else would fall.
"How are you?"
"I am well."
