"i'm fine," said those who hide their faces from their friends those who force their laughter and fake their smiles dull eyes "i don't care," said the ones who were mocked endlessly teased, ridiculed, excluded, demeaned the taste of tears "i'm used to it," said the ones who can't sleep at night from anxiety their hearts race in constant fear of the unknown numb fingertips "i can handle it," said those who stare at their reflection for hours those who can't stop thinking they're not good enough distorted faces "i'm sorry" said the ones who scratch themselves 'till they bleed their bitten nails red and painful dried blood
