I am...Fine

I'm fine
I have had my heart broken so many times that I can never fully trust anyone else again
But
I'm fine
I have lost more people in my life during the past three years than I can count on my hands and toes
But
I'm fine
I can't stand in front of the mirror for more than 2 minutes without hearing a voice inside my head pointing out all my imperfections
But
I'm fine
I lost all my friends because they think that I am a liar
But
I'm fine
I have been blinded by darkness for years and am afraid that I won't be able to see the light of day again
But
I'm fine
I'm an insomniac because every time I close my eyes I see him on top of me forcing himself inside of me
But
I'm fine
I'm fine
I'M FINE

No

I'm not fine
I am not able to love anyone because I protect my heart from anyone who has the ability to break it
I'm not fine
I have held my closest friends and watched them die right before my eyes
I'm not fine
I cannot love myself completely because all I can see are the imperfections that cover me from head to toe
I'm not fine
I have been falsely accused of events in my life and have lost those who I thought would be in my life forever
I'm not fine
I have come to the point of hurting myself so that I can focus on a new pain caused by my own hand rather than that of the ones I thought who loved me
I'm not fine
I have been taken advantage of and scarred for the rest of my life because of your actions
I'm not fine
I'm not fine
I'M NOT FINE
