What You Called Soft By: Amanda Burton
You didn’t love me. You loved how small I made myself for you. This is what “too much” looks like when it finally stops asking permission. #embracevulnerability #unfiltered #relationship #woman #nomore

Fragmented in the Moment By: Amanda Burton
This poem is for anyone who smiles through the noise, who stays even when their body is screaming. You’re not broken—you’re overwhelmed. Overstimulation isn’t a choice. Neither is the longing to stay. #poetry #mentalhealth #love #real #depression

Cycle Breaker By: Amanda Burton
For those stuck in the endless cycle and for those who have broken it…knowing who you are and revealing to that the world with the reality of knowing someone will judge you can be terrifying but living a lie and hiding behind a wall of fake is worse. YOU are valued. YOU are worth the truth. YOU des

Two photos show Amanda Bynes walking outdoors, wearing a white graphic t-shirt, ripped light-wash jeans, and carrying a small patterned bag. Her light hair is styled. The text "THIS MADE ME EMOTIONAL..." is superimposed, reflecting concern for her current appearance.
Why Does Seeing Amanda Bynes Hurt?
I don’t know what it is, but seeing Amanda Bynes out in LA always hits me in the chest. She doesn’t look unhappy, just…distant. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but after everything she’s been through, I really just hope she’s okay and protected. Did anyone else use to love “The Amanda Show?!”

What Healing Sounds Like To The Past By: Amanda B.
For the women who carried the world without permission, and the women who broke rules so we could break silence— your courage made this freedom possible. We speak now because you could not. #healingthroughpoetry #empowerment #women #history #fightback

Functioning, But Too Much Anyway By: Amanda Burton
I whispered this one. Maybe because I’ve spent years trying to soften myself for other people. Anyone else ever feel like they’re “too much” for rooms they’re in? #functioningbut #embracevulnerability #unfiltered #mentalhealing #poetry

Letter to the Girl I Used to Be By: Amanda Burton
A letter to the girl I used to be—the one who carried storms in silence and still found a way to hope. She held every broken piece without knowing she was building the version of me who stands here now. This poem is my way of reaching back to her, gently, finally telling her she wasn’t fragile… she

The Static Inside By: Amanda Burton

Functioning, But On Trial By: Amanda Burton

The Smallest Thanks By: Amanda Burton
This season asks us to name what we’re thankful for, but the blessings that matter most aren’t always the ones we can see. For many of us, the holidays feel heavier than we admit — and it’s the quiet, genuine kindness from others that shifts the weight. A gentle word, a moment of grace, a softness
