Do I Miss Who I Used to Be? 🥀

Sometimes I wonder if I actually miss certain people, or if I just miss the version of myself I was before everything happened.

I used to trust more easily.

I used to laugh without thinking so much.

I didn't question every little change in someone's behavior.

Now, I notice everything

A different tone.

A late reply.

A small change in someone's words.

And sometimes I hate that I became this way.

Not because I don't like who I am now, but because I miss the girl who didn't have to think twice before trusting someone.

Maybe growing up isn't just becoming stronger.

Maybe sometimes it's learning how to carry the things that changed you without letting them completely change who you are. ❤️‍🩹
