Survivor

I still remember the day you stole my innocence away.
The world shifted—
colors drained from golden light to endless shadow.

It started as a simple conversation,
slowly pulling me down to your basement.

I was only 13 years old
when you left me to walk home on shaking legs.

At first, I thought I deserved it—
because fear stole my words before

Trigger Warning : Self Harm

As the room closes in,
my heart begins to pound,
body begins to shiver.

With every cut,
a story told,
in crimson lines
emotions unfold.

But in the darkness,
there's a light,
a glimmer of hope,
shining bright.

For within the scars,
resilience lies.

To those who are hurting, 
I hear you,
I see you.

Rekha - Trigger warning

Standing upon the roof top,
watching her brothers walk to school,
Rekha reminisces about her playground,
full of childhood innocent smiles.

A sole kite decorated in orange and red,
floats in the morning breeze,
Rekha feels her soul tug at her heart strings -
yearning for such freedom to roam.

A martyr to dowry, a casualty of sacrifice.
What Rekha's parents thought 
was an

Trigger Warning

("Contagion III", 2020, original pen and ink and oil)

Trigger Warning

From the safe space of my hardened little heart
I send out my love
In waves of conditional bliss
To all who are just like me.
And since that’s actually no one
That love only fills the hollow hardened space
A geode no one will ever open.
Yet within this mirror-facetted crystal cave
A

Killing me inside Trigger warning

Depression feels like it's eating me inside,
Feels like the world is ending and all I want to do is cry,
Bills piling up so high,
And my worth of living makes me want to die,
It's killing me inside,
I can confide,
But what will it change,
Everything feels out of range,
Screaming for a life preserver as I'm drowning,
But the water

Trigger Warning

Trigger warning;
Cock back aim; 
Just make sure you’re pointing 
the barrel the right way;

Trigger warning;
Cock back aim;
Someone trying to tell you what to do?
You already know what you need to do; 

Trigger warning; 
Cock back aim;
Take the mirror and shatter it;
Say what you need to say;

Trigger warning;
Cock back aim;
Don’t be a reflection of the ‘quiet’

On Content Warnings

There are some poems we are just not ready to write
The wound is still too fresh for us to take notes from the light of it
And our pencil tips aren't sharp enough to stitch us up just yet

When we spill our sins in ink
We pray with stained hands
Leave indigo fingerprints saying this is who I

Past Pain

Looking through old posts and being reminded of the despair I was feeling a few years ago...
Posts about suicide
Posts about self harm 
Posts about never feeling worthy
Posts about not wanting to be alive. 

It hurts to be reminded of the pain I was feeling. 
In the depths of my depression and self-loathing;
Thoughts of escaping the

Rape - trigger warning

October: I'm eighteen, shortcutting home
through an autumn-burnished churchyard -
copper-lustred leaves, moss-skinned stone -
a jaunty swing of skater skirt and arm,
college folder square-sturdy in my hand.
In the moment. In the last pale pulse of sun.

Hey, can you tell me...?
I halt. I turn...

Cold earth. Colder blade dimpling my skin.
My coral cameo earrings scatter,
daisy-dotting the green.
My back is
