    Never to stay, Never to commit by walking shadow poetry

    I see you, standing there,giving so much of yourself,to people who only come aroundwhen it’s easy for them,when it costs them nothing,when all they want is to pass the time,never to stay, never to commit. You open your heart,hoping that maybe this time,it will be different.But all they ever seem to wantis your company for…

    Too busy for us by walking shadow poetry

    I keep dialing your number,hoping this time you’ll pick up.But it’s the samethe silence,the missed call that stays missed,like I never tried. I send a text,simple, just asking if you’re okay,but the dots never dance back,no reply,just empty space between us now. I ask if something’s wrong,if we need to talk,and you say, “No, there’s…

    The Silence Between Us by walking shadow poetry

    I called you last night,But the phone stayed quiet,Not a single ring back,Not a “sorry I missed your call.”I waited, hoping, staring,Like maybe today, you’d remember me again.But you didn’t.You never do anymore. I sent you a text this morning,Just a simple “how are you?”But your reply… it never came.Maybe you’re busy,Maybe you’re just tired,But…

  • Betrayed by walking shadow poetry.

    Betrayed by walking shadow poetry.

    I know it hurts, more than words can say,The trust you gave, now thrown away.You opened your heart, let someone in,Only to find betrayal beneath the skin. It’s okay to feel broken, to cry the tears,To question everything after all these years.But know this: the betrayal isn’t your shame,It’s a reflection of them, not your…

    To the One Who’s Been Betrayed by walking shadow poetry.

    I know the pain, the hurt that you feel,When someone you trusted wasn’t real.The sting of betrayal cuts so deep,It makes you question the love you keep. But listen, dear one, don’t close your heart,Though it feels like you’re falling apart.The pain will pass, though it may take time,And trust will return, slow but in…

    Broken Trust by walking shadow poetry.

    I never thought it would come from you,The one I trusted to see me through.I shared my secrets, my hopes, my fears,But now those memories bring only tears. You were the closest, the one I believed,But in the end, it was you who deceived.I thought we were stronger, thought we were real,But now I’m left…

    Dear You, Who Feels Alone by walking shadow poetry.

    I see you there, struggling in the dark,Feeling like life has lost its spark.I know the thoughts, I’ve been there too,Wondering if anyone would care if you’re through. It starts so quiet, a whisper in your head,Telling you maybe you’d be better off dead.You try to shake it, pretend you’re fine,But it grows louder, like…

    I Thought I Was Done by walking shadow poetry

    It started slow, just a voice in my mind,Saying things like, “You’re useless, you’ll never findPeace in this life, nothing feels right.”At first, I ignored it, kept it out of sight. But soon it got louder, hard to ignore,I started to wonder what life was for.I smiled in the day, but cried in the dark,Feeling…

    A Battle I Never Chose by walking shadow poetry Kenya.

    I’ve carried this weight since I was a child,Rejection met me when I was too young to understand.The words they threw stuck like barbed wire in my skin,I grew up wearing it like an invisible cloakTrying to be good enough, trying to fit in. I learned early how to smile through the pain,How to pretend…
