I never wanted to be angry. I just wished to be understood. I don't want to be defined by the moments when I raised my voice or let my emotions spill over. That is not who I am at my core. Deep down, I only wanted someone to care enough to try to see the world through my eyes, even for a moment. I wanted someone to tell me it was okay to feel the way I did, that my emotions weren't too much, that my feelings were valid. I never wanted to be angry, I just wanted to be seen, to be heard, and to be understood. Is that really too much to ask?
