She's an independant person.
That's what they're calling it these days;
An independant person.
In other words;
She's alone.
She can live with that.
For now.
She can call herself independant.
For now.
She will not be alone forever.
She hopes.
She can regain her trust in others.
She hopes.
I'm an independant person.
She whispers to herself,
over and over and over.
Until independant slowly transitions to
lonely.
