I've been holding it together for the past two years. I've been mad that I can't change what's happened to me. I've been frustrated that he still has so much influence over me when I should be over it. But I can't change the past. It happened. It wasn't fair, but it did. And I need to let myself feel the pain and unfairness. I need to let myself collapse as opposed to struggling to keep up my walls. They are broken. It'll be a mess when they come down, but then I can work through it. That's what this musical is: me working through it. It's also to make me feel like it wasn't all for nothing. If this helps anyone else realize the toxicity in their situations or feel less alone, then this will have done exactly what I needed two years ago. I can't change what happened in my story, but I can help effect other people's narratives.
You are never alone.
