In this video, I’m sharing a song about feeling seen — that quiet, almost sacred moment when someone looks at you (or listens to you) and you don’t have to translate yourself. It’s an indie folk kind of offering: gentle, honest, and rooted in the emotional landscape where tenderness and bravery overlap. If you’ve ever felt like you were disappearing in plain sight, this one is for you.
Because there isn’t a transcript included here, I can’t quote my exact phrasing from the video — but the heart of it is simple: being seen can be healing, and it can also be terrifying. I wrote this as a small lantern-song for anyone learning to receive care, to be witnessed without performing, and to let that soften them. Take it as a companion piece for late-night walks, journaling, or those in-between seasons when you’re trying to come back to yourself.
