Independent or Loner

She grew up depending on the close people around her for every little thing that happened.
Eating alone was like a punishment, as if made to stand in the corner back in school,
Watching movies alone was always heartbreaking, for there'd be no one to laugh and cry with.
Being alone anywhere scared her like the darkness scared little kids.

The strength of words, it can make or break just anything. And sometimes life takes it's harsh toll, and that's when thoughts strike up, changes take place and things happen.

That was what happened, a few words and her perspective changed. She now preferred being alone, being with the empty air, and a touch of silence. She now loved watching movies alone, because of the fear of crying in front of someone else.
Getting close to someone was like something alien, fascinating but not something she'd want to encounter.

What happened to her ? A few words and her world changed ? What happened to the girl who always drowned in dependency ? 

She is now lost between what's independent and a loner.

(Thoughts sprung out under the pressure of harsh words spoken by someone close)
