I can do it alone, i always do. I've learned how to carry groceries, pain, memories, solitude, compliance sometimes all at once. I've figured out how to untangle things no one else noticed they were knotted. i answer own questions, fight my own doubts, cheer myself when the silence is too loud. People say you're so strong, like it's a gift, and not something i've built brick by brick when no one showed up. But yes, i can do it alone.
