The Unending Fight
Poetry / by WinterAims
Last post
 August 18th
...See more In the depths where shadows choke the light, Where hope is strangled, dreams ignite. I tread the path of endless night, Cursed by life, a constant fight. No joy to taste, no sweet reprieve, Just hollow days that make me grieve. The world spins on, but I remain, Drenched in this unending pain. False smiles, fake words, a cruel jest, A universe that won’t give rest. Promises of joy, a fleeting lie, Left with nothing, left to cry. Anger boils, a seething flame, At this fate, this twisted game. Why grant the wish to breathe, to live, when happiness is but a sieve? To the heavens, I scream my plight, In this cruel, relentless night. Never happy, forever damned, By a world that doesn’t give a damn.
Sleepless Nights (Poem)

...See more Fear In the grip of fear, I lose my way, A tangled web, where shadows play. Whispers of doubt, echoes of dread, In the maze of fear, I lose my head. Haunted by what-ifs, dreams that die, In the depths of fear, I quietly sigh. Each step a struggle, each breath a fight, In the grasp of fear, I hide my light. But amidst the chaos, a voice of reason, A path to courage, in every season. For in the depths of fear, I find my strength, To face the unknown, and go to any length. Yet fear grips me with icy fingers, In the depths of darkness, it still lingers. No escape from its suffocating hold, In the shadows of fear, I’m left cold. Haunted by nightmares that won’t let go, In the depths of fear, I’m unable to grow. A prisoner of my own mind’s creation, In the echoes of fear, I find no salvation.

Layers of Ink: Writing and Risk
Poetry / by WinterAims

...See more In the depths of ink, where shadows dance, I ponder the role of vulnerability's trance. For in the lines I weave, I bare my soul, Yet fear the toll of wounds untold. With each word penned, a piece of me, Exposed to the world, yet longing to be free. Navigating the labyrinth of my mind, Seeking solace, solace to find. Vulnerability, a double-edged sword, Unveiling truths, yet striking chords. How do I balance, how do I cope, With emotions raw, with scars and hope? I tread lightly on the page's expanse, Guided by courage, yet wary of chance. Protecting my heart, my sanctuary within, As I navigate the delicate dance, where to begin? Yet in the vulnerability, there lies strength, A testament to resilience, at any length. For in the act of sharing, wounds find their voice, And in the echo of empathy, I find rejoice. So I embrace the risk, the fear, the unknown, For in vulnerability, true growth is shown. Navigating the balance, with each word I write, I find the courage to expose, to heal, to ignite. Ive started therapy, and I’ve only been to a few therapy sessions, and my poems were a big part of how I would share my experiences and emotions, and my therapist gave me some “homework” and told me to think about this, “What role does vulnerability play in my writing process, and how do I navigate the delicate balance between exposing my wounds and protecting my own emotional well-being?” I don’t have a super simple answer or anything but I used it as the topic for this poem.
Beneath the Surface: Embers in the Dark (TW: Trauma)

...See more In the silence of childhood’s tender grace, Lies the echo of a forgotten place. Where shadows lingered, and fears took flight, In the depths of darkness, veiled from sight. Tiny hands grasped, trembling with fright, Through endless nights, seeking the light. In the corridors of memory, whispers cried, As innocence faltered, and hope nearly died. The scars unseen, etched upon the soul, Bearing the weight of secrets untold. In the labyrinth of the mind, echoes remain, A testament to resilience, amidst the pain. In the labyrinth of youth, scars intertwine, A web of pain, a legacy divine. Through the passage of time, wounds may heal, Yet the echoes of trauma, still can feel. @Tinywhisper11
Echoes of Winter (Poem)(TW; Trauma)

...See more In winter’s grasp, shadows linger deep, Where icy winds through memories creep. Beneath the snow, buried lies unseen, Frozen echoes of what once had been. Each flake descends, a silent tear shed, In icy silence, hearts feel dread. Whispers of trauma, haunting and cold, A bitter tale that can’t be told. Branches bare, like scars on the land, Echoing pain no one understands. In winter’s embrace, sorrows entwine, As frozen tears fall line by line.
