Promise of Denial

Dimming lights,
fading hope
but I'm okay
I promise.

Drowning lungs,
bleeding heart
but I'm okay
I promise.

Lonely nights,
starless skies
but I'm okay
I promise.

Shattered mirror,
broken reflection
but I'm okay
I promise.

Broken bones,
tear stained scars
but I'm okay
I promise.

Empty hands,
forever gone.

I'm not okay,
I promise.
