Remarkable

Things my therapist says

I was saying

dumpster fire

He was writing "remarkable"

I said

I only see the failure

He said mistakes and failure are not the same thing

I laughed

I was alone

You're not alone; you were lonely and there's a difference

I feel the foreign sting of tears

Life is just another problem in need of solving

and you don't have to have the answers

I talked about my brother and my invisibility

It's being irrelevant that gets to me

everyone wants to feel seen
