The Journal's Whisper

There was a time when I was deeply sceptical of sharing my voice—my words, ideas, and most vulnerable thoughts. The fear of being judged, misunderstood, or rejected loomed over me like a shadow. But writing, especially journaling, has always been my safe space, a refuge where I could pour out my raw emotions and untangle the clutter of my mind. In the quiet of my pages, I could breathe freely, without fear of judgment or interruption.

Journaling became a way to create and reflect—an intimate practice that allowed me to unravel the layers of limiting beliefs and negative patterns I didn’t even know I carried. It was through this act of letting my soul bleed into the paper that I began to see the truth of who I was, the places I was holding myself back, and the strength I had all along. No wonder they say the pen is mightier than the sword; words, after all, can move mountains.

I’ve always been in awe of artists and painters whose emotions leap off the canvas, and whose work speaks in ways words cannot. Through my poems, I hope to achieve the same—to create something that resonates deeply with others. My deepest hope is that someone, somewhere, finds strength in my words, as they navigate their own struggles and emotions.


Between the lines of paper whispers,
Secrets unfold in quiet streams,
The ink unravels tangled thoughts,
Spelling out forgotten dreams.

Pages hold the weight of worries,
Silent witnesses to each tear.
Pouring truth in silent letters,
Unspoken fears become clear.

In scribbled words, the heart uncovers
Paths long lost within the haze;
Reflections born in mirrored verses,
Guide the soul through the twisted maze.

Each thought, a key to locked emotions,
Unlocks the voice that hides inside.
Release, release, the pen commands,
No need to fight or run or hide.

To journal is to map the self,
To spill, to bleed, to name the pain.
Through every line, a step to healing,
Through written storms, the heart regains.

Dreams and shadows find their patterns,
Fears laid bare, beliefs made plain.
In empty spaces, truth emerges—
The mind, the heart, at last, reclaimed.



Journaling offers a unique way to process emotions and thoughts that might otherwise remain buried. How does writing or journaling help you in uncovering and understanding your own emotions? Do you find that putting your feelings on paper helps to untangle your thoughts and bring clarity, or is there another method that helps you release what’s inside?

Amazon Worker

Hey there Amazon Worker, Do you think you pulled one over? Mocked my vulnerable side, only to protect your fake pride. I can’t fathom why I ever asked you to pamper and protect. Your wealth was never my concern, yet you watched my trust burn. As I began to share how I felt, you made a snide remark, hitting below the belt. Do you think I care if people change the way they stare? I’m no longer trying to hide; the girl you knew has long died. It’s amusing now that you said I remind you of your mother— What kind of devil hurts the daughter of another? Everyone says to forgive and forget since you were only a child. I would if you didn’t parade your weak masculinity, born of Rothschild. Your false grandeur can’t erase the damage done, I’ve found my strength and my journey’s just begun. If you thought you were good for my image, Know this: my growth surpasses your limits. I’m a woman whose name you can’t tear from the page, And I will stand tall, owning my own stage. ~ Kanika Kau...

Not So Bhavya

Oh, drop the good guy act, You pretended to care, that's a fact. Someone who was hiding their own shame, Called me psycho and crazy, how lame. You tried to charm me with your coffer, Brushed off my pain, saying, “Stop it, or else I won’t buy a lightsaber.” You took all you could and then asked what I have to offer? Funny how you wanted to burn it all down when you lost your maker, But when I cried and screamed, called me a big faker. You claimed to know love, but never took the time, To understand my heart, my rhythm, my rhyme. You wrapped me in darkness while claiming the light, But all you offered was a hollow delight. Now your shadows fade, and I choose to ignite, I’ll weave my own stories, reclaiming my flight.
