Innerbattles Stories

Sana is a mess. A beautiful, overthinking, emotionally exhausted mess. She's trying to heal from things she never talks about, carry responsibilities she never asked for, and survive a life that seems determined to test her at every turn. Between family drama, friendship disasters, anxiety spirals, awkward crushes, bad decisions, and dreams that refuse to die, Sana discovers that growing up is far more complicated than anyone warned her. Funny. Painful. Chaotic. Hopeful. This isn't a story about a perfect girl. It's about an ordinary girl trying her best. One day at a time.

You think you've survived, yet something still pulls you toward the ache. You soothe your heart, whispering that it's nothing - soft, light, harmless. You convince yourself it's free will, strength of mind, a calm command. But it's a bitter fruit stuck in your throat - neither swallowed nor spat out, only lingering in pain. You try to smile though your lips tremble from exhaustion. You look into the mirror, asking: Do I pierce through it, or does it pierce through me? You reach out to yourself, touching your own solitude, only to find a blurred reflection. You ask your torn heart, How much endurance do you have left? Life keeps coming for you - relentless, unapologetic. It hurls you against the wall, only to bend you halfway, then forces you to rise again, like a sword reclaimed. You spin within your own orbit, watching repetition tighten its grip. You lose, you are lost, you search. It's a revelation without clarity - like a theft in broad daylight by a blind thief. And then, a faint light disturbs you; you fear it might expose you. You stand on the edge of dawn - and extinguish it. Still, you keep trying.

Poems and random mind rants about depression and anxiety.

IA, the new girl in town stuck in the past, and Yuuma, the local bad boy, an unsolved mystery. Both misunderstood, both always grieving, both broken. One meeting and their whole life is changed. That one meeting....that one song....that one feeling...that one fear. Don't judge me for being cliche. And I don't own the cover, I just cropped the image and added a few effects and filters!

Lying is a survival skill. Sometimes, lying is a necessity, if not just a mere way to sugarcoat the unpleasant, dodge the unnecessary, and temporarily keep someone or something at bay. But while it is a skill to be used sparingly and with the utmost care, someone who claims to never lie... well, they've just spoken the greatest one there is. But every lie bears weight, and even the perpetual liar may find that it eventually becomes too heavy to carry. [Old poem with many flaws.

This book is poetry about the moments before everything falls apart. The thoughts that keep you awake at night. The love that hurts more than it heals. The way your mind can become both your safest place and your greatest enemy. Told through deeply personal poems, 'Before the Breaking' follows the quiet unraveling of a girl learning how to survive the weight of her own thoughts. Her story is personal, but echos the feelings of many. Because somewhere between the cracks, the hurt, and the healing, we all learn what it means to keep going. Author: Lexie Kathleen

Everyone thinks Ava is okay now. She laughs, she listens, she shows up. But behind her quiet smiles and steady presence, she's still carrying wounds no one can see. Invisible Wounds is a deeply emotional story about silent struggles, quiet strength, and the ongoing journey of healing when the world believes you've already recovered.

I sat at the edge of my bed, staring at the empty room. The rain tapped against the window, a steady reminder that the world kept going, even as I stood still. My phone lay face down on the nightstand, silent, with unread messages from people who cared but couldn't reach me. The darkness felt heavy, suffocating, as if it had a heartbeat of its own. I traced the scars on my palms, memories of struggles too deep to share. A tear slid down my cheek, but I wiped it away, not wanting to admit that I was drowning, even in a room that should have felt safe. Outside, the rain kept falling. Inside, I stayed, waiting for something that might never come.

A collection of poems

A quiet unraveling of thoughts, where silence feels heavier than words. A reflection on fading presence, tangled emotions, and the weight of unspoken feelings capturing the stillness outside and the storm within

It has been months since I have new friends. No, they are not ghosts. Nor are they apparitions. Rather, they are voices. The one that would exist in the mind of a schizophrenic. However, this one is different. For me, they are more than just crazy, meaningless voices. They are something way, way more

A quiet breakdown that no one sees. This poem captures the moment when you feel trapped between staying and leaving, between truth and denial, between survival and surrender. It is about emotional suffocation, self-doubt, and the silent war within - where one voice wants to give up, and another refuses to let you end your story here. For anyone who has ever felt stuck, lost, or slowly disappearing - this is for you. Maybe this isn't the end. Maybe this is where it begins.

An internal dispute between the voices within us. A constant battle we all go through. Some decisions that these constant battles may lead us to and some mistakes that may change our lives forever.... Inspired by Bunny aka Kabir

the story is about an individual who has an inner battle that they must survive

What if the problem was never you... but a world that never knew how to see you? Lucifer: the world doesn't understand us is not a story about good or evil. It's about being judged before being understood. It's about carrying labels you never chose. It's about falling... and realizing you were never truly standing. Between silence, rebellion, and acceptance, this book dives into the mind of someone who learned to survive in a world that prefers masks over truth. Here, "Lucifer" is not a villain. It is a symbol. A silenced voice. A suppressed identity. Everything the world rejects... until it is forced to face it. If you're looking for a light read, this may not be your place. But if you've ever felt lost, misunderstood, or tired of pretending to be someone you're not... then this book was written for you.

This poem is a raw dive into the fractured reality of panic, anxiety, depression, and the blackouts that shape a life unseen by most. It follows the journey of one person navigating streets, memories, and moments of sheer terror, walking a path where the body and mind betray each other. From the pounding heartbeat that feels like it has escaped the chest, to the trembling hands and pinching pain in the left arm, every line is an unflinching reflection of what it's like to survive in a body that reacts before the mind can understand. This is not just a story of panic attacks - it's an intimate confessional of trauma, empathy, and the struggle to maintain stability when the world seems too loud, too heavy, too dark. It's a reminder that even in fear, chaos, and confusion, there is movement forward, there is agency, and there is the quiet determination to survive. For anyone who has walked alone through their own storms, who has felt their heart outside their chest, or who has stared into the void and kept moving, this poem speaks to the flesh, to the bones, and to the unbreakable spirit inside.

"I used to feel everything. I used to feel the breeze in my hair, her touch on my skin, the hold she had on me, my own heartbeat. Then she left me. Now all I feel is numb after that night."

MY CROSS is a poem about love, sacrifice, and the burdens we choose to carry, revealing how every relationship comes with its own weight and lesson.
