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

Functioning, But Too Much Anyway By: Amanda Burton

Mom, But Still Human By: Amanda Burton
Being a mom doesn’t erase the human underneath. Trying counts. Showing up counts. Even on the hard days. Even when you make mistakes. They won’t remember you yelling about a broken tv or grounding them for being disrespectful but they will remember forever that you’re their constant and that they c

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

Beautiful Disaster By: Amanda Burton
I wrote this because I needed to admit that I can’t arrive quietly. I’m messy, I’m honest, I carry every edge of my truth. I leave sparks where courage meets the air, and I refuse to shrink the parts of me that demand to be seen. Some beauty can’t be tamed and I wanted this poem to hold that.
