All We Really Want
All we really want, I think,
is to be understood. To know
*
we are seen from our Truth,
our reality: our damage, our
*
trauma, our misperceptions,
and the way those things
*
colored our choices, shaped
our decisions. We want
*
someone, anyone,
*
to see those things and remind
us they were real
*
so we can stop screaming into
the void, trying to convince the world
*
we’re not crazy.

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
