In a house where laughter was a secret too loud, and dreams were tucked away like fragile paper birds, Persephone grew quietly-her spirit tethered by fear, her mother's voice a fading echo, and her father's shadow long. 

Now, across years and miles, she reaches back to that dwindling flame of a little girl within her, whispering words woven with warmth and hope. In the stillness, she finds that beauty rises unbidden, like a secret song waiting to be sung. 

For anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or small, this story is about finding one's voice and the journey of slow, brave becoming. The voice of slow, brave becoming.All Rights Reserved

I'll Be Here by natasha_dunlap

She never saw me coming. And that's okay. I saw her-long before she ever looked my way. I had my own story before Alyssa. A quiet life. A few scars I didn't talk about. But the moment I saw her sitting there-shattered, strong, and trying to hold the world together-I knew. She didn't need a hero. She needed someone to stand still long enough to be seen. To be heard. To be loved... exactly as she was. This is our story-my version of it. The moments she didn't see. The words I never spoke aloud. The love I gave in silence, one heartbeat at a time. And when she was ready... I was already there. I'll Be Here is a powerful companion to I'll Be Seeing You, told from the heart of the man who waited, watched, and loved Alyssa through every storm. It's a story of patience, presence, and the kind of love that never needed to be loud to be real.

She was her own first love by tymawrites

She stepped into the fire and came out blazing. A secret she once hid became the storm that shattered her world. In the ruins of heartbreak and betrayal, she didn't just survive...she discovered a fierce power within. Every scar tells a story, every wound a lesson, and every moment alone brought her closer to the woman she was meant to be. Now, standing at the crossroads of past and future, she faces the hardest choice of all- to run from the pain or to rise through it. But what does it really mean to be free? Can a heart broken so deeply ever trust again? And when the shadows of yesterday threaten to pull her back, will she fight to protect the light she's finally found?

The Wound in Me by Bogdessa

This book is inspired by a true story. A girl once lived through every feeling you will read about here. But as the author, I chose not to give you all the pain - instead, I wove in fragments of fantasy. Between reality and imagination, the truth still breathes.

Eternal Echoes by JoanneLo22

⚠️ Warning Below This is the story of a little girl who learned to grow in the silence-like a wildflower blooming through cracks in concrete. She lived in a house of shadows, where the walls whispered violence, and silence became her shield. Her days were shaped by what was unspoken-by hands that harmed, by trust that fractured, by love that came laced with pain. But even in that stillness, something stirred. Instead of drowning in the quiet, she began to listen-to the words of others who had walked through similar storms. Their stories were not just stories. They were maps, mirrors, and lifelines. Through their truths, she began to uncover her own. Now, she turns inward and outward, breaking her own silence-not with a scream, but with a steady voice that has waited a lifetime to be heard. This book is not just about trauma. It is about the bones of a broken girl who built a life from what was left behind. It's about grief, and the ghosts of family. About the way innocence can be stolen, yet spirit still survives. It's about the quiet power of letting go. But above all-it's about freedom. The kind you find not by fighting, but by finally releasing what was never yours to carry. And if even one soul finds a piece of themselves in these pages, then her voice, at last, has done what silence could not. ⚠️WARNING Author's Note & Content Warning: This is a deeply personal and emotional story that touches on domestic violence and childhood sexual abuse. While written to bring awareness, healing, and understanding, I recognise these topics may be distressing for some readers.

Loving Autumn by BernieCross

"I rebuilt homes for a living. I just never thought I'd have to rebuild myself." I'm Autumn. Second sister. Designer. The warm one, the creative one, the caretaker. People say I make spaces feel safe. But they don't know how long I lived without safety myself. Ethan taught me pain. Bruises. Silence. Shame. Grayson taught me love, once. My childhood best friend, my first heartbreak, my almost-everything. Now he's back - a divorced neurosurgeon with three daughters and eyes that still see me the way I used to dream of being seen. My story isn't just about falling in love again. It's about choosing to live again. ⚠️ Content Warning ⚠️ This story contains sensitive themes that may be triggering for some readers, including: • Physical, emotional, and sexual abuse • Trauma and recovery • Violence • Mentions of teenage pregnancy and sexual content While these elements are important to the characters' journeys, please take care of yourself while reading. If at any point it feels heavy, it's okay to pause or step away. This is a work of fiction intended for mature audiences (18+). Reader discretion is strongly advised.

Suicidal by kaii12321

This is the story of an abused teenage girl, Maddie. Her need to die has become overwhelming and she is trying to find a way to help herself before she does something she may regret. The story is told from her point of view as she recalls all that has happened to her. Maybe telling her story will help her, maybe not. This isn't just any other sob story. This is more realistic. You may even find yourself comparing your life to Maddie's while reading this story. Disclosure: I wrote this as a 13-year-old and the writing is definitely not up to my current standards, but I feel as though changing what I have already written would take away from the emotion I put into this story at 13 years old. If you'd like an updated and more well-written version, please read my other story entitled "Remembering". TW/CW: domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation

The sound of Her Becoming by SudikshaGupta7

It is the story of Raina-a quiet girl with a loud heart-unfolding her voice in a world that taught her to whisper. When silence becomes too heavy to carry, Raina begins to write, speak, and ultimately live for herself. Through lost dresses, whispered poetry, and the wild ache of choosing freedom over certainty, she finds family in friends, love in unexpected places, and courage in saying "not yet" to the things she's not ready for. From kitchens lit by soft rebellion to gardens glowing with birthday candles, this is a coming-of-age story wrapped in rhythm, quiet defiance, and gentle victories. It's about growing, leaving, and the beautiful audacity of not waiting to be ready before you begin. *A story for the soft-spoken, the slow-blooming, and everyone who ever needed to become their own permission.* *"I'm stepping into the world as a new author-my voice is fresh, my story is raw, and all I ask is that you give it a read before you decide."*

INSIDE AND OUT by forevereliana023

They say a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. But what if that step is taken in the dark, guided only by the fragile, flickering light of your own fear? This is not just a story of a journey; it is the map of a soul. Inside and Out is a piercingly intimate exploration of a life built-and almost broken-by its own walls. It begins in the quiet turmoil of self-doubt, where the reflection in the mirror is a stranger and the concept of beauty feels like a weapon. Here, in the shadows of uncertainty, a spark of determination is born-not a roar, but a whisper, a stubborn refusal to be defined by the cracks within. This is a story of peeling back the layers. It's about the terrifying, exhilarating work of growth, of looking your deepest fears in the eye and choosing to move forward anyway. It's about clawing your way toward self-respect, not as a destination, but as a daily practice of choosing yourself, piece by broken piece. And then, just when you think the path is one you must walk alone, another soul intersects yours. This is where the narrative deepens, transforming into a profound meditation on true love. But this is not a fairy tale. This love is a mirror, reflecting back not only your light but also every unhealed scar. It is a love that demands courage, that asks the most terrifying question of all: Can I be truly seen, inside and out, and still be chosen? Inside and Out is a breath held before a confession, the ache of a healing wound, the fierce, quiet triumph of a spirit refusing to be subdued. It is for anyone who has ever fought to find the beauty in their own chaos and dared to believe that the most important jo journey we ever take is the one that leads us back to ourselves-and, in doing so, opens us to a love that is as relentless as it is real. Prepare to feel the story unfold within you. Your journey begins here.

Flowmotion by Naria-Raku

Ever since she was a child, Melody has dreamed of following in her famous mother's footsteps and becoming a singer. But there's one problem-her voice. Convinced she doesn't have what it takes, Melody starts to lose faith in her dream. Everything changes when she crosses paths with people from a completely different world than her own. Through new friendships, raw talent, and a fresh take on music, Melody begins to discover that maybe her voice isn't the problem-it's how she's been taught to hear it. A/N: I've been inspired by a Tumblr post from years ago. If there's similarities with other stories, that's may be why.

Almost, Always 🍁🥀 by _velvetverse_

"Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel. In a classroom filled with noise, their glances screamed stories. A slow-burn connection, unsaid words, and almosts that could've been everything. This is not a fairytale. This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.
