I'm ok but not ok

I'm falling, but I'm ok
I'm hurt but I'm ok
I'm not cutting
I'm not starving
I'm not taking more medication that my body can handle
I'm ok

Or at least
I keep telling myself that...

And I wish you would talk to me
because you shouldn't be the one to just listen
I've been there before
I know what it's like
talk to me
even if I don't understand the situation
I'm here for you
just like you're here for me

but maybe I'm delusioned
maybe I'm creating a false reality for myself
and it's not like I haven't done that before
because I have
I'm ok
but not ok

I know you aren't truly ok
you're just as broken as I am
so let me try to help you
even if I can't really help myself
let me try
just like you've been here for me
don't leave me to be the only one getting help
you deserve it 
just like I do

you're ok
but not ok
I'm ok
but not ok
we're in this together
it's a two way street
not a one way alley 
talk to me
you're ok
but not ok
I'm ok
but not ok
we can lean on each other you know
