On my own

As a kid, I was always cautious of everything, how I walk, how I talk, going through the few exchanges over and over again. At school, I was always growing by myself, watching, listening to what I should be, leaving the boring lectures. For so long, I was this way, looking at people, how they interact, thinking out loud about why they do certain things, and I was finding answers on my own. I was bad at communication, but I was learning. But all of it made me who I’m today, all by myself. And after all of this, some people thought they can hurt me by leaving me behind.
