none of us are okay anymore

some of us aren't okay
because people have hurt us.
some of us aren't okay
because we try to help everyone else.
some of us
are just simply not okay.

we think we're 
broken.
we think we're 
failures. 
we think
that something's wrong with us.
we think these things
because society
has taught us these things.

none of us are okay anymore.
no one's left
to support us 
because we're all trying 
to support everyone else
and we're just
slowly dying because of it.

no one's left
and soon
we'll all be gone
alone
unhappy
scared
depressed
anxious
anorexic or bullimic
or just simply 
not okay.
