Rawwriting قصص

A book of poems from an amature author

She thought motherhood would feel soft, like something she was always meant to become. And when two pink lines finally appeared, she let herself love something she hadn't even met yet. But loss doesn't just take what was growing, it takes pieces of who you were becoming with it. Now, standing in the quiet aftermath of grief, she finds herself staring at two lines again. This time, hope doesn't come gently. It comes tangled in fear, memory, and the haunting question of what if it happens again? A raw story about love, loss, and the fragile courage it takes to try again; when your heart isn't the same as it was before.

I didn't grow up quiet. I grew up learning when it was safer not to speak. "These are the quiet moments I never said out loud - memories, realizations, and pieces of healing written in motion." Notes on Life & Movement is a series of reflections told through journal-style prose and poetry - tracing survival, softness, and self-discovery. Each volume explores a different part of healing: the heart, the past, and the quiet moments in between. This isn't about pity. It's about remembering. About hearing the child I once was and telling her, "You made it." Volume 3 is coming soon!!!!

This story is not about sleep. It's about what happens before sleep takes you-when your body is still here, but your mind begins to slip away. Paralysis is a raw, unfiltered experience of dissociation, emotional overload, and the terrifying moment when reality no longer feels real. It captures the quiet buildup of pressure-the tight chest, the distorted voices, the feeling of being present but not truly there. This isn't fiction created from imagination; it's pulled from a lived moment where exhaustion, stress, and detachment collide all at once. At its core, Paralysis explores what it feels like to disconnect from yourself. The countdown, the silence, the decision to "leave" mentally while your body continues to move-these are not metaphors, they are survival responses. The story walks through the shift from awareness to absence, showing how the mind protects itself when it reaches its limit. And when that limit is pushed too far, it spills into something physical-sleep paralysis, panic, and the feeling of being trapped inside your own body while everything around you feels real enough to believe. This is not just about fear-it's about understanding what happens when the human mind shuts down and resets. It's about the space between being here and not being here. The moment where you question whether you were ever fully present at all. Paralysis is heavy, intense, and deeply personal. It's for anyone who has ever felt disconnected, overwhelmed, or lost inside themselves-and lived to tell the story of coming back.

Some things don't arrive fully formed. Some thoughts stop mid-sentence. Some feelings refuse to be named. Some hours pass without ever quite becoming anything and yet they leave a mark anyway. The Unfinished Hours is a collection of poems and scattered thoughts written in the margins of ordinary days. About the things that happen between the big moments. The quiet aches. The half-realizations. The 2am clarity that disappears by morning. No particular order. No grand conclusion. Just what was true when it was written. For the ones who think too much and feel even more.

Beneath the Surface is a piercingly honest reflection on the silent battles we fight within ourselves-the ones no one sees, but we carry every day. It unravels the quiet agony of existing in a world that demands masks, obedience, and stillness, while our inner selves scream to be known, felt, and free. This is a poetic descent into the depths of identity, emotional weight, and the haunting echo of dreams left behind.

She wasn't living. She was just... not dead yet. Trapped between survival and surrender, she walks the edge of a world that never made space for her. Every page bleeds questions-about life, about love, about a God who watches in silence. This is not a happy story. But maybe, just maybe- it's an honest one. A raw, emotional dive into the mind of a girl unraveling, and the quiet strength it takes to keep breathing.

- POEM - a poetry depiction of my life and my struggles with feeling disconnected from myself and the world around me.

I made this because i was feeling deep emotions and this helped (a bit. I probably need therapy but it's fine...this is my therapy..)

This 2 part Poem depicts a Broken code, tangled prayers, and the return of a voice. This poem is raw, healing, and deeply human.

A raw, unfiltered story of a morning that started with quiet sadness, turned into white-hot irritation, and somehow ended in the middle of a wild, unplanned parking-lot fiesta. This is the chaos, the comedy, and the truth of what it feels like when life hits from every angle - and you still stand in it.

"Desires" is a street realism poem that questions how society views beauty, pain, and worth. Inspired by raw human truth, it exposes how people chase what looks good, while ignoring the broken, the scarred, and the silent sufferers. This piece speaks for the ones whose wounds are invisible-whose souls fell long before anyone noticed.

Lexie,a young writer battles the quiet chaos of grief, pouring their soul into journals no one reads. *"Scattered Ink on Tear-Stained Lines"* follows a journey of healing through words - where pain, hope, and memory collide on the page. Each line is a confession, each page a battlefield between what's spoken and what remains buried. As their world shifts, the writer must face the truths hidden between the ink and the silence - learning that sometimes, the deepest healing comes not from being heard, but from finally listening to yourself.

Sometimes, life doesn't break you with a storm. It wears you down in silence. This isn't a story of grand victories or perfect love. It's about the quiet kind of survival-when you're holding on, not because anyone sees you... but because something inside refuses to let go. Through raw memories, small acts of grace, and fragile moments of connection, this emotional journey explores what it means to live, to hurt, and to keep going-even when no one is watching. 🔸 For anyone who's ever felt invisible. 🔸 For anyone who's still here. 📖 Read the story that's already moved thousands.

We don't talk enough about how heavy it is just to exist. About waking up tired of yourself. About loving people you shouldn't. About carrying pain that no one else sees. The Weight of Being is not a story - it's a confession carved out of silence. Twelve fragments of a life collapsing and rebuilding itself through depression, desire, guilt, and small moments of light that somehow keep us breathing. It's not about healing. It's about surviving. It's about the weight, and the beautiful, unbearable truth of being alive.

She was the child everyone blamed, the one who carried the weight of a broken family. But this time, she's telling the story her way - unfiltered, unpretty, and painfully real.

Love is a strange thing-it makes you shine, it makes you weak, it makes you break, and it makes you dream. These poems are pieces of falling-into love, into longing, into loss. Raw, honest, and unpolished, they carry the beauty and ache of emotions too big to hold in silence. This is not a guide to love, but a reflection of what it feels like to surrender to it.

A poem about unrequited love, self-doubt, and the overwhelming pressure of just trying to exist. The truth hurts-but sometimes the lie hurts more.

Prequel to Barbed Wire Psalms Carousel of Destruction is a series of raw, confessional poems about the cycles we swear we're done with... until they pull us back in. Addiction. Relapse. Temptation. Memory. Survival. Every piece is a snapshot of the spin- the chaos, the crash, and the climb back out. These aren't pretty stories. They're the ones you feel in your ribs. - Left The Circle I - The Pullback II - Downward Spiral III https://www.patreon.com/posts/barbed-wire-144840033?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link
