Sometimes you just need someone because you are not strong enough to carry yourself. You'll bond strongly with that person; friends for life, passionate lovers. Does it end with hurt? Or is it the choice to not cherish? What colour memories live on? And which will perish? In the end I don't think it's about being independant. Or not needing someone else. It's about loving yourself and living on. Even if you desperately need someone for a while.
