Throat Armoring: Surviving Silence, Finding the Words | Trauma and Body Memory Poetry


Listen Later

In this raw and haunting spoken word piece, Throat Armoring explores the physical and emotional experience of surviving trauma through the body’s instinct to silence itself. With vivid imagery of scalene muscles seizing, words dying in the throat, and emotional aphasia, this poem captures the invisible battle between survival and expression. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to stay silent, the fear of using your voice, or the grief of words trapped inside you, this piece will resonate deeply.

Perfect for listeners navigating trauma healing, somatic memory, and reclaiming the right to speak.
