After this, I'll be more silent. Not because I'm mad, but because I'm tired of explaining myself over and over just to still be misunderstood. I used to say everything I felt, hoping people would finally get me, but not everyone listens with the same heart you have. So now, I'd rather stay quiet than keep wasting my energy. I don't want to argue anymore. I don't want to beg people to care. Some things really change you, and sometimes the only thing you can do is become quieter because of it. Not cold, not heartless, just more careful. I still care, probably more than people know, but after everything, I learned that my peace feels better than forcing people to understand the pain they caused you.
