hidden poet - im fine

How are you today?
Is it strange that that's a hard question to answer?
Do i tell you that im fine?
Or great?
Or do i burden you with truth?
Or hint that there is something deeper?
Do i tell you that i hurt inside?
Or do i tell you a lie?
Do you sense my hesitation
before i say i'm fine?
