And I've taken the time to see more than surface deep, sometimes drowning in the structure of a leaf, or disassociating from my body into a piece of music, or an hour in the shade of a forest, eyes closed, losing myself in birdsong and leaf-rustle...

This paragraph - this is what I was talking about in answer to #1 of the meme for you. I struggled with how to get my meaning across. (Now, if I'd just caught up with reading before I did the meme.) I wish I'd saved the wordier versions of my response; the uncanny synchronicity would be more apparent.

I... don't feel like "I've seen things." That's something that's been dogging me for a while now. It's possible that I'm just not recognizing some things as "things," right now. Also, I have these walls, see... very inconvenient when trying to engage with the world.

Beautiful piece. Thanks for sharing it.
