I grew up..❤️ I grew up needing comfort but learning how to survive without it. i became the girl who wiped her own tears and kept smiling like nothing hurt. i stopped depending on people and taught myself to be strong instead. i cried quietly at night and showed up normal the next day. i hid my pain so well everyone thought i was okay. truth is, i never learned how to ask for help, so i carried everything alone inside me..❤️
