Spoken Word: A Space to Be by walking shadow poetry.

There are days when I feel like I’m drowning,
Like no matter how hard I try,
The weight of the world keeps pushing me down,
And no one sees it, no one hears the cry.

I smile, I laugh, I play the part,
But deep inside, I’m falling apart.
I’ve built these walls, kept myself locked tight,
Afraid to let someone in, afraid of the fight.

But here’s the truth we all need to know:
You don’t have to go through it alone,
We all have scars, we all have pain,
We all have moments where we feel insane.

So let’s create a space where we can just be,
No judgment, no shame, just you and me.
A space where we don’t have to pretend,
A space where the hurt can finally end.

We don’t have to hide, we don’t have to fake,
We can share our hearts, we can make a change.
Because when we come together, we are strong,
When we share our stories, we all belong.

So if you’re struggling, don’t keep it in,
There’s no shame in the battles we’ve been in.
Together, we’ll lift each other high,
Together, we’ll find the strength to fly.

Let’s make this place a home for the broken,
Where love is spoken and hearts are open.
A space where healing can finally start,
A space where we can be real, heart to heart.

Because no matter what you’re going through,
You’re not alone, we’re here for you.
So let’s make this world a little more kind,
A space for the hurting, for peace of mind.

Together, we rise. Together, we stand.
Let’s make a space where we all understand.

End.
