I'm Okay │Spoken Word Poetry

I wrote this poem to vent a little but also because I remembered a professor of mine talking about how the majority of the time we say "I'm Okay" or "I'm Fine" when someone asks us how we are. So I wrote a free verse about it.

No one notice the tears,
No one notice the stress,
No one notice the depression,

But they noticed my mistakes...



Hey it has been I few months; I just wanted to thank you all for the likes but this doesn’t make me very happy because every time I get like it means that someone was also watching this video and was felling.. you know depressed & whoever you are I just want to make you feel better...


And by the way you dropped this ❤️ here’s your heart, don’t let anyone break it 😊

I watched this.
I started crying.
My mom comes in.
"Whats wrong?" She asked.
"My fav character died in the show..." I answered, still with the tears in my eyes.

[smallpsycho]

I always say to everyone"I'm okay" but inside I'll never be...

"I'm fine/ I'm Okay"
-Is the biggest lie everyone has told
And it's the most used

[hazelxzyy]

While watching this my little sister came into my room to say bye and as I hugged her I began to cry. She asked me what was wrong with me and told her “nothing” so then she told my mom that I was crying and she asked me what was wrong with me and all I said was “I’m okay”. It’s hard to tell the truth when you have so much on your mind 😔

My little sister is 3 so she didn’t understand why I was crying.

Roses are dead
Violets are broken
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm dying!!

[idk_what_im_doing_tbh]

This mask i wear
This smile i fake
They'll never know
Untill i break.

Under this mask
There's a broken face
Not yet to be seen
Not yet to be heard.

I hear them hate
i see them stare
I'll carry on with my life
One miserable day at a time.

My mask hides me
Day by day
But all i have to say
Is "im fine"
I lied.

I don't want to be heard
I don't want to be seen
I want to be alone
With my silent plea.

When im im alone
My mask breaks
Shattering from the hate
My heart aches.

So i guess its time to put on my mask, see them stare, hear them hate, laugh when i want to cry, in this mask of mine, im sorry for waisting your time.

I feel like this everyday and I'm done with life

[bunnylover]

Im just tired
(I'm depressed)
The cat scratched me
(I started cutting)
I'm not hungry
(Im starving)
I'm fine
(Help me)

I will leave this comment here so that when someone like this I will still get a notification

[iiamimperfect]

I'm okay...





O- On the edge of breaking down
K- Know that I'd be a bother if I asked for help
A- Another few months of cutting myself
Y- Yet nobody understands
*I guess you could call this just another cry for help right?*

This is what was keeping me alive till now..I'm a sad and depressed person..who else in 2019……?

[maddison]

When I go to school I :

Smile
Laugh
Focus

But when someone says something about me the way I look or how I act I break and they don't realise they say :

Why is she angry
Why is she crying
What is wrong with her
She's just doing it for attention
But she's so happy-
Or is she

What they don't realise is I do all these things but I get home and I'm a completely different person that's why I always say

I'm okay

Praying for everyone who struggles with depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, or any problems they are having with their mental health. God is always with you and he loves you more in a second than anyone could in a lifetime. Follow Him and he will get you through this. Talk to Him through your prayers. ❤️✝️

[sophenphath]

I can't sleep
I don't hungry
I can't do everything
I can't stop love you
I can't stop miss you
(I'm fine)

[loveislove]

the words "i am okay" and "i am fine" just cover up the pain. after a while the words do not hurt, the fake smiles stop hurting.
you start to play a role in as your self and it becomes real. but your life is not a book do not end it, keep being this charter and change how your story goes. just keep going keep the story, your story going

[broomieboy]

Im ‘fine’
F-Failed
I-In Pain
N-Neglected
E-Embarresed
Im ‘fine’
Just take it slow but my depression will grow
The shadows at night make me fight
The light of my life is just too bright
As i cut it makes it worse
When it all comes down
Outside i got a smile but inside *i got one sad frown*

Hear my poem it will be alright were in this together and lets make it right!

"Maybe if I pretend on those really bad days, I'll start feel like I'm actually okay." This hit hard

[Wowmargaming]

Faking it until it feels real huh.. me for 3 years straight and I'm still not done
