I'm not okay
I'm broken and terrified
Scared beyond fear
Wise beyond my years
I'm not okay
I have scars on my body
Pain beneath my eyes
Coldness within my soul
I'm not okay
I am not perfect
I have fat on my bones
Pimples on my skin
Stretch marks on my belly
I'm not okay
I won't pretend to be
Because withholding that pain
And suppressing this
Is not okay
And never made things better
I'm not okay

Sometimes
But it's okay to not be okay
And it's okay to feel the way I feel
And struggle with the things I do

It's okay.
I'm not okay.
And I won't hide my pain
To keep you from being offended
