I feel seen

you know what I mean

you see it in yourself

and then you feel it in others

 

don’t pretend

you haven’t been there

and done that

that’s othering

 

when you put

someone

outside of what

you could have felt

 

you mine the situation

you bring up revelations

and you let in flow back

into your self-awareness

 

and that’s how we grow it

and that’s how we own it

and that’s how we’ll ever get

out of this trap we set for ourselves
