I don’t want to be strong
I want to be soft
I want to showcase my
puddles of melted tears
I want to be held by community
I can do it alone + I have been but
I’m tired
Tired of keeping up walls so
high no one can traverse them
Moats so deep you
drown before you have access
I don’t want to be strong
Strong is overrated
Strong is isolating
Strong is exhausting
