i just want to be known
sometimes i wonder if i really am that hard of a person to understand
while i dont know many things, i do know myself, mostly.
but i want to be known by someone besides me.
i want someone to know what makes me happy and what makes me sad
i want someone to notice how when i write my hands fly across the page and turn to mush near the end
i want someone to notice how my eyes light up at a stray cat
i want someone to know how i like my coffee, how i like my toast
i'm not a hard person to figure out.
and i dont even want to be figured out , i just want to be known.
i want to be known from the inside out, to have someone who knows me better than i know myself
i want to be recognized.
and most times i wonder if i ever will, not because of people but because of myself.
maybe im not a person people want to figure out,
no one cares enough to want to know me
i lived wanting to be the main character , but every day i realize how small and in the background i am
i dont want to be the main character, i just want to be one persons main character.
i just want to be known,
known for me
i want to feel like even one person knows me.
because it really feels like no one ever has,
or maybe they just didn't care enough
