what to say

Location

I was asked today if I was okay.

When asked that what do i say?

Say yes? and lie,

Say no and explain why?,

which is worse? 

Lie to someone and feel the guilt,

Or tell the truth and be locked up in a padded room?,

No one knows what is wrong,

Andif you think you do,

I never told you all of the truth.

Why would i share that?

I'd rather lie,

than to relive my past and want to die.
