She doesn't speak about what happened.
Not directly. Not yet.

She writes it instead
in fragments, in whispers, in red.

ROOTS is not a traditional memoir.
It's a body remembering.
A girl vanishing.
A woman returning through poems, letters, and the ghosts that won't let her go.

"Some stories ain't meant to be told straight.
Some got to be danced outta the bones."

Told in a voice that is part stage, part prayer, part scream, ROOTS invites you to listen closely,
but don't expect answers.
Only echoes.Todos os Direitos Reservados

The Weight of Breathing, de EmberTong

Every breath carries a story. Some are shallow, fleeting. Others are heavy - filled with memories, pain, and the quiet will to keep going. When life begins to lose its rhythm, when exhaustion settles deep into the bones, one girl must learn what it truly means to be alive - not just to survive. Through illness, recovery, and rediscovery, The Weight of Breathing unravels the delicate thread between body and soul, showing how health is not only about the heart that beats, but the reasons it keeps beating. This story reflects on the fragility of the human body and the quiet resilience hidden within everyday life. It's a journey through stillness, breath, and healing - and a reminder that sometimes, the smallest inhale can change everything.

Her Story:The Bush, de SediThePoet

After what happened in the thorn bush, everything changed. As a female her rights were violated but that did not stop her from fighting. Besides the life changing event she encountered more life threatening challenges, she nearly lost her life in the journey of finding herself but in the end she became a reflection of her name. iMbali a flower, and this is her story.

Eternal Echoes, de 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.

Fragments Of A Shattered Dawn, de 1d_football5

A collection of raw, unfiltered poems that bleed with honesty. Inside these pages live the ghosts of depression, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, heartbreak, abuse, and grief. These words do not shy away from darkness-they sit with it, speak its language, and unravel the silence it leaves behind. But this is also a book about survival. About longing and love, even when unreturned. About desire that aches and healing that comes in imperfect forms. About the messy, jagged ways we try to piece ourselves back together. For anyone who has felt too much, or nothing at all. For anyone searching for fragments of themselves in the ruins. This is not a guide to healing. This is proof you are not alone in the storm. Trigger Warnings: Depression Self-harm Suicidal ideation Grief and loss Emotional and psychological trauma Abuse (emotional, physical, and implied sexual) Dissociation Heartbreak and unrequited love Loneliness and isolation Sexual themes and longing Descriptions of pain and intrusive thoughts

Poems You'll Never Read, de Bluntly

You'll find poems about rage and survival, love and longing, isolation and betrayal-every emotion I've ever wrestled with is here, carved into lines of confession and reflection. Some will hit like a punch. Some will whisper like a hand holding yours in the dark. All of them are real. If you've ever searched for yourself in someone else's words, or wondered if your pain, your fire, your chaos mattered, you might just find yourself here. This is my voice, my storm, my truth-blunt, fiery, and impossible to ignore. Every poem is a piece of me-raw, unfiltered, and unapologetic. These are the words I couldn't say aloud, the truths I carried alone, the scars I turned into fire. Poems You'll Never Read by Kaylee Rose is for anyone who's ever felt broken, silenced, unseen, or betrayed. Poems You'll Never Read by Kaylee Rose.

THE NIGHT WE BURIED HER NAME, de unfilteredmama

She ran from the man who tried to silence her. She hid behind a name that wasn't her own. Inside the walls of a women's shelter, she learns what survival really means-friendship, strength, and a voice she thought she lost forever. But when her past comes crashing back, she must decide: keep hiding in the shadows, or step into the light and reclaim the name he tried to bury. A raw and empowering short story about loss, survival, and the courage to rise again.

A Kind of Love: Redeemed, de Eno_Rayne

They told her she was too far gone. She almost believed them. Havillah May - the pastor's daughter who disappeared in the dark. Shame drove her out of the only home she'd ever known. The silence that followed nearly buried her. Now, a year later, she's back - not to explain, not to justify, but to quietly rebuild what she thought was lost forever: her voice, her faith, and maybe... herself. She doesn't expect God to still want her. She doesn't expect anyone to stay. She definitely doesn't expect to feel whole again. But grace doesn't wait for perfect conditions. And healing rarely comes in straight lines. In a small house with a garden full of lilies, with the help of unexpected friends, whispered prayers, and pages she never meant to share - Havillah begins to believe in a kind of love that doesn't flinch at brokenness. A kind of love that stays. A kind of love that redeems.

The Shadow of Comparison, de AGR2808

"Growing up in someone else's shadow taught me one thing: finding myself was the hardest-and most beautiful-journey of all." School was supposed to be easy-a place to learn, laugh, and grow. But for her, it quickly became anything but simple. 🌿 Everyone around her seemed brighter, bolder, better. Every whispered compliment, every small success she didn't have, made her question herself. Slowly, the shadow of comparison began to follow her everywhere. Then college arrived-bigger, more dazzling, and full of surprises she never saw coming. Friendships that challenged her, choices that tested her, and moments that made her heart ache in ways she didn't expect. Could she navigate this new world without losing herself? From quiet school corridors to late-night reflections, from self-doubt to self-discovery, this story is about growing up, facing unexpected twists, and finding the courage to step out of the shadows. If you loved "The Goodbye We Never Said," you'll recognize the familiar struggles and heartfelt moments-and maybe even find yourself rooting for her as she learns to shine in her own light.
