I begin to shed the weight of their mistakes, brick by brick. A wall made up of the load I’ve been carrying for people who’ve never shown up to do the same for me, for too fucking long. Weight created by their selfishness and missteps. My every attempt to help them with their burdens thwarted or overlooked. So, as I shed their collective sins, their burdens, I materialize a wall between myself and their fucking decisions, becoming lighter with every step.
