I'M Fine

I say I'm fine,
That I won't give up, 
But I do. 
I try to mask it
But it still shows. 
The feelings I hold inside me, 
I will keep bottled up. 
To make it seem like I'm okay. 
No one can see me
Wanting to give up, 
Wanting to break down and cry. 
I don't know how much more I can take. 
I have to be strong 
And pull through
It's hard though,
But I'll be fine.
