I want to be seen. I want to be heard. I want to be *listened to*

I don't know if it's good for me to get what I want, though. I've wanted a lot of things that ended up being bad for me

I've wanted - I still want - a lot of things that I *know* are bad for me, because addiction is like that and recovery only works if you work it.

(So I hear, anyway. I haven't been.)

In my heart of hearts I believe that I was destined to be one of those poets who live fast and die young, only I never had the opportunity to do the former, & as a result, I've already lived too long to do the latter

& what can anyone who has outlived their destiny do but continue on out of resentment & spite & the barest sliver of bitter hope that there's something more left in the future after all?
