Everything's Fine

No one knows my demons,
The war that's inside me,
Each day would be a struggle,
I try to get up,
I'm crushed by the waterfall,
My problems seem small to you,
But they're swallowing me whole,
Im slowly breaking,
While you sleep in the night,
Each piece I put back,
Makes two more disappear,
The hole inside,
Is my prison,
My fear holds me back,
The promise that I don't have to be afraid,
That I can rest my head,
My mistakes are slowly drowning me,
I always hear people say,
Time will make it better,
I must be a little funny,
Staring towards the sky,
Like I don't care,
Watching time fly by,
Wishing someone could see me,
Standing there,
Seeing that nothings fine at all,
But no one knows how hard I try,
No one knows what it's like,
I always wear a mask and
It always says 'Everything's Fine'.

Wow!! really good!
The strong section of the poem is the addressing your mistakes part and responding to the statement, ending with a great single line: 'I must be a little funny.' If you haven't yet try and relate to some of the giant feminist poets: Anne Sexton. Sylvia Plath. Keep going. Be introspective.
I always wear a mask,
and it always says everthings fine....
