The Unspoken Crush spoken word.
I see you every day,From a distance, just a glance,And every time you’re near,My heart skips like it’s in a dance. You’re the first thought in the morning,The last before I sleep,But my feelings stay hidden,Locked in a place too deep. I stumble over words,When you’re standing close to me,Afraid that if I speak,You’ll see…

The Distance Spoken Word.
We’ve never met in person,But our words bridge the gap,A connection forged in messages,Where time seems to lapse. We talk about our days,The little things, the big,I’ve learned the way you think,And the songs that make you sing. Your voice is just text on a screen,But it’s music to my soul,Every word you send my…

Across the Screen spoken word.
I see you in social media platforms,A face I’ve never touched,But every post, every picture,Pulls me in, just as much. We’ve never spoken,Our worlds have never collided,But through a screen, I’ve foundA love I can’t deny or hide. I scroll through your moments,The glimpses of your day,And with each passing post,My heart drifts further away.…

Holding On Spoken Word.
I’ve walked through fire,Felt the burn of life’s cruel touch,Every step a struggle,Every breath a heavy sigh. The nights are long,The silence loud,And in the darkness,Pain echoes all around. I’ve been bruised by words,Scarred by actions,Each wound a reminderOf battles fought and lost. But even in the depths of despair,Where light seems so far away,There’s…

Holding On to Hope Spoken Word/Poem
There’s a weight on my chest,Heavy as the night,Every step feels like a battle,Every breath a fight. Pain has become a companion,One that never leaves,It follows me through the days,And haunts me in my dreams. I’ve seen the darkness,Felt it wrap around my soul,Whispering that this is it,That I’ll never be whole. But deep down,…

Love Myself spoken word.
I used to chase love in all the wrong places,Hoping someone would see the worth I couldn’t find,I gave pieces of myself to those who didn’t care,Thinking their approval would somehow make me whole. But all it left me with was emptiness,A hollow echo where my heart should be,I looked in the mirror and saw…

Learning to Love Me spoken word.
I used to search for love in every corner,In every face, in every word,Hoping someone would see me,And finally, I’d be heard. But the more I searched,The more I felt alone,Trying to find my worthIn places I’d never known. I thought love was somethingI had to earn,A prize for the perfect,A lesson I had to…

The Voice Inside Spoken word.
I used to wake up every morning,With a weight on my chest,Feeling like the world was too big,And I was too small to exist. You see, there’s this voice inside my head,It told me lies every day,“You’re not enough,” it whispered,“Why even try? Just stay away.” I’d stand in front of the mirror,But couldn’t meet…

Title: Rising Above
I used to hide in shadows,Afraid to be seen,Feeling small in a worldWhere everyone seemed so big. Every mirror whispered lies,“You’re not enough,” it said,And I believed each word,Letting them sink deep in my head. I shrank from every challenge,Thinking I would fail,Watched others chase their dreams,While mine grew frail and pale. But one day,…
