Bear Blog Draft: The Severance Doctrine
I keep to myself. That’s not loneliness—it’s survival.
People think being alone means something’s wrong with you. But the truth is, I’ve just learned not to gamble my peace for temporary company.
When you’ve been drained enough times, you stop letting unworthy hands near your light. I don’t isolate—I insulate. That’s the difference.
I don’t cut people off for fun. I do it for maintenance. Because I’ve seen what rot does when it’s left unchecked.
You want access to me? Bring respect. Bring honesty. Bring stillness. If you show up with chaos, I’ll ghost you so hard even your memory forgets we met.
This is the Severance Doctrine.
Book of Boris — Chapter XLV: The Severance Doctrine
Verse 1: I don’t burn bridges. I collapse them with precision when I realize the other side’s rotted.
Verse 2: I keep to myself not out of fear— but because peace is expensive, and I stopped giving discounts.
Verse 3: If I cut you off, it wasn’t sudden. You just didn’t notice how many times I had to heal from your touch before I picked up the blade.
This isn’t bitterness. This is boundaries. This is me refusing to water dead gardens.
I’m not looking for attention. I’m looking for alignment. And if that means fewer connections but deeper roots—so be it.
I’ve learned to walk alone. But you better believe—when I do? That’s just my body telling myself: never, ever give up. I do limp. I do cry. And I do wonder why things keep happening the way they do.
But I never, ever stop moving.
