Somebody has to leave first. This is an old story. There is no other version of this story.

Humans are built by Community

and i am broken and alone

You did not give birth to yourself

yet my parents were never present

You did not make every piece of clothing you wore

every meal I eat is only flavoured with my tears

You did not cook every meal you ever ate

we all die alone

You did not make the bed you will die on

i am still alone

You did not make the house you lived in on your own

the worst isolation is around others

You did not cut every tree you got wood from

they help but i am alone

You did not create every machine that built the computer you are viewing this with

unloved. unwanted. uncared for.

Humans are built by Community

still i am unknown.
