Being Fine

"I'll be fine," she whispered to
Herself, as she squeezed her eyes shut.
Opened them and took a deep breath and
Pressed the button to go back,
Not wanting to look at it any longer than she could help it.
Such a little thing, just a small,
Green circle,but it was enough—
More than enough—
And what once set her heart a-flutter,
Now plunged it into the depths of despair.
"I'll be fine," she whispered again
And again and again,
"I will be fine," as hot, scalding tears
Streamed down her cheeks.
