Dealing with people is starting to hurt.

Being friends, being family, being lovers, even strangers — it all hurts more than being alone.

I’m a girl with feelings so deep everyone runs at the thought of holding space when it’s “too much.” I’ve grown used to dismissal, silence, and being treated like a case study instead of a soul.

I deserve to be handled with care. And if I don’t remove myself from places where that’s not happening, I’ll never get it.
