Self-reflection Stories

Alexandra "Alex" Harper, a 28-year-old journalist in a bustling city, begins noticing someone who looks exactly like her in public. At first, it seems coincidental, but soon the "double" starts appearing in situations only Alex knows about, following her movements, and even interacting with people she knows. Friends and family insist they've never seen the double. As Alex investigates, she discovers secrets about her past, hidden family connections, and psychological manipulation that make her question her sanity. The deeper she goes, the more dangerous it becomes; not only mentally but physically.

Dominion begins as a small, isolated town, a microcosm of human society. Its streets, homes, and landmarks are ordinary, but the novel transforms them into metaphors for consciousness, memory, and identity. The arrival of the liquid metal extraterrestrial beings-Dominion itself becoming sentient-turns the town into a living, reflective organism. The silver alien substance functions both as a literal presence and as a literary symbol for human connection, perception, and evolution. Through the narrative, Dominion evolves into a bridge between human and cosmic consciousness, a vessel for both empathy and existential awareness. The town's streets, mirrored surfaces, and silver tendrils serve as metaphors for reflection-personal, societal, and cosmic-while the gradual integration of alien intelligence creates a tension between fear, understanding, and transcendence.

A poem born under moonlight,🌕 about a love that once burned soft, then faded into questions, and finally settled into calm tides.🌪️🪬 It's the story of a heart learning to breathe again, of waves that hurt, heal, and return not to someone, but to itself.🕊️✨

I grew up quiet - not because I had nothing to say, but because no one ever listened. "These are the quiet moments I never said out loud - memories, realizations, and pieces of healing written in motion." Notes on Life & Movement is a series of reflections told through journal-style prose and poetry - tracing survival, softness, and self-discovery. Each volume explores a different part of healing: the heart, the past, and the quiet moments in between. This isn't about pity. It's about remembering. About hearing the child I once was and telling her, "You made it." Volume 3 is coming soon!!!!

This is a collection of every almost. Almost loved, almost chosen, almost healed, almost enough. These poems are for anyone who finally realized they deserved more than the stories they kept rewriting.

ये कविताएँ हमारे भीतर के उस हिस्से को छूती हैं जो अक्सर खामोश रहता है। हर कविता एक आईना है, जिसमें हम अपने ही विचार, भावनाएँ और अनुभव देख सकते हैं। ✍️ Sweta Pandey द्वारा लिखित यह पुस्तक आत्मा की यात्रा है - शब्दों के माध्यम से स्वयं को समझने की कोशिश।

A collection of spoken word and prose poetry exploring what it means to break and to begin again. These are the fragments we collect after the storm: the moments of pain, clarity and quiet strength that form the long, imperfect act of healing. Each piece is a confession, a reflection, a reminder that sometimes survival itself is an art form. These are not perfect poems. They are fragments of thoughts, echoes of pain and quiet confessions written when the world became too heavy to hold.

An ongoing collection of poems that explore the human experience, delving into themes of peace, mortality and the power of words.

Here are some poems that are inspired by things I face in everyday life! I will admit that I have not been doing it long, I actually used to not like poetry! But then, I discovered the emotion I could channel into it. I discovered that I love poetry. I hope that every single one of you can discover that same love! Happy reading :)

A journey through shadows, faith, and the ache of unanswered questions. For those searching for light amid darkness

Between the never-ending bills, the heartbreak, and the situationship, Ayana feels like she's living a script she never signed up for. When she finally has enough, she decides to write her own happily ever after.

An OC oneshot, because I can't commit to a new story (I don't think...) Morella, a pink and yellow moth demon with broken wings and no voice moves into the Hazbin Hotel, the building is full of colourful characters, some more than others. The one person Morella never thought she'd get the attention of was the King of Hell himself, Lucifer. Having recently got back in touch with Charlie, he too has moved into the hotel, rubber ducks and all. Through daily disagreements with Alastor and trying to find a place within the hotel, the tall and slender pink and yellow moth demon is something to behold; not just because of her content silence, but there is something about her which Lucifer feels is luring him in, ironically like a moth to the flame.

poems I have written throughout life

The story of a girl who lost everything and found her strength again.

How can love stem where it is forgotten? The North Pole is a fortress for faith and all things holy to spread the spirit of Christmas, but the reindeer and elves have forsaken one of their brethren because they are afraid. Amidst all, Rudolph has to discover what it means to be a reindeer and having the choice of choosing yourself or the uniformity of others. Let the whole North Pole show its character, let it be judged, and let Rudolph's struggle be a journey to uncover what it means to have the true spirit of Christmas. Author's Note: Whenever the holiday season comes, I like to sit down and enjoy the Christmas spirit with nothing but a dimly lit room and hot chocolate with a bunch of books or movies that share the message of love. One of these books and movies coming from Rudolph. However, I felt Rudolph's story was one too short and simplified from the original books and films and way too much plot from more recent works. This book isn't me wanting to replace or change the story of Rudolph, but of expanding the original. It is with this version that I want people to explore who Rudolph is and how the society that raised him failed to live up to their mission of being a symbolic society of love. Rudolph will face many internal and external conflict, but he will also learn an important lesson that everyone around him has forgotten. That is why I bring to you this version of the holiday tale to write a story I feel completes what I have been missing from this character for so long. It is here that I wish to bring that tale to you also.

When absence becomes a face we see every day, and existence turns into a question without an answer- Adam steps into the maze of his own mind, only to face what he fears the most: himself. Face of Absence is a haunting journey beyond the borders of man and shadow, where silence speaks, and every echo hides a truth untold.

Language is a reflection of humanity. Chaos that veers into organization Just to spin away again with a giggle and a grin. Random poems that I write. I will update sporadically. Constructive criticism is appreciated. If you want to see my best poems, head to the back first as I will (hopefully) improve as I write. I also encourage you to check out SpeakerForTheFrost's book Two Shades of a Shattered Heart, which has their own poems as well as our joint poems. Enjoy!

When people see me cry, they usually think I'm stupid and childish. They don't know that I don't cry for no reason. I have always wanted them to know that there is always more to the story.... All of the events that happened are based on real-life experiences. I hope you will enjoy and understand the moral of this memoir. -Chloe (10 years old*) "This is a great example for stories with themes buried into it." -My 5th grade teacher *Please don't judge my age just because I'm only 10. I didn't just post this memoir for fun, I want to share my experience with everybody.
