Poems are often disregarded as a romanticized way of looking at conflict. Here we meet a young girl, who has been mute since she was three. No friends, no life at all. The only way she survives is through her poems. Little do her doctors and countless therapists know that it's no medical feat...it's her only comfort. Her condition is a mystery, along with her name. But, despite all the circumstances, she is not depressed. She finds comfort in the most silent of places.

Trapped in my own head
She is an outcast. She finds it easier to express what she feels in the form of writing. Whether it is poems, letters or long texts. These are poems that she writes trying to describe how it feels to live with certain mental health issues, in a world that disregards outcasts. So, these are on the darker side of the spectrum. Some poems might be distressing for some readers. I personally enjoy consuming dark content, it's kinda like a coping mechanism. I really hope none of you relate with any of these :) I'll be posting only poems here, I'll try to be as active as I can. The poems are not in any order. They are just the thoughts that pop up any time of the day. (8.11.2023) PS: Please check out 'safe space'. I need your help to make it a real safe space, readers!

The Light and the Darkness
This is a collection of short stories and poems detailing the life of a simple girl who's life took a certain turn of events. She is no more different than you and me. The only thing that separates her from us is her experience in life; her ups, her downs, her troubles and her pain. She never gave up, no matter what was put on her path she stood strong. What helped her was that just like bamboo, she could bend when the wind was stronger than her.Complete

[kodachrome]
Life is as intense as you allow it to be. Some people bring overwhelming joy; others leave wounds that never fully close. [kodachrome] is a journal born from that intensity, where healing through words becomes the only way to survive what cannot be forgotten. Rather than blurring pain into shades of gray, this collection paints it in color: memories, almost-loves, resentment, longing, and the quiet aftermath of heartbreak. Like a kodachrome photograph, each piece is vivid and emotional, preserving moments that shaped a soul in an era filled with sadness. This book contains poetry, short stories, and intimate reflections, written as an act of release, a way of forgiving without forgetting, of remembering without losing oneself. * Mostly fictional, inspired by real emotions and past experiences. 📌 Pinterest board: https://pin.it/397dQqEff
