I Always Say "im Fine"

F orlorn like a leaf, slowly accepting the breeze beneath.

I ndefinate as I change my shade, in response to the season's love and rage.

N othing as I slowly disappear, in mud and dirt and waters clear.

E ndless as I slip away, and feed the soils that end my days.



And so when you enquire, how are you?

Then this fine word will leave no clue

As to how I feel inside

But such is how you taught me hide



With each day as I arise

And when I embrace my last demise

Be reassured, I'm fine my dear

Because that is all you need to hear.
