Christmas, Then and Now by walking shadow poetry.
I remember when Christmas felt like magic,When the air itself seemed to hum with joy,The streets dressed in sparkling lights,And carolers sang songs we all knew by heart. Those days, the world seemed to pause,Shops filled with laughter, not just noise,Neighbors exchanging gifts and smiles,A season of giving, not just spending. We’d gather as a…

End Corruption by walking shadow poetry.
I stand here with a heart so heavy,Dreams crushed, roads so unsteady.Not by storms or nature’s might,But hands that steal in the dead of night. I’ve seen the sick, their eyes pleading,Hospital beds with no one heeding.Money meant for their pain and care,Gone to line pockets without a share. I’ve walked roads riddled with cracks,Promised…

Don’t Put the Blame on Me by walking shadow poetry.
The boundary of your vision is the boundary of your manifestation,How far you see defines your destination.Every man’s size is shaped by his estimation,Yet all you do is put the blame on me, without hesitation. You think I’m the one who walked away,That I left you wounded, with nothing to say.You believe I spread the…

Stop Corruption by walking shadow poetry
I sit here, my heart so broken,By the pain of words unspoken.My father died, not by chance,But because a bribe let danger advance. At the hospital, they turned us away,“No beds here,” was all they’d say.Yet I saw money pass through hands,And watched them ignore my father’s plans. My sister dreamed of going to school,To…

Discovering My Hidden Strength Poem by walking shadow poetry.
There were times I thought life was too muchTimes when everything felt heavy, like I was breaking inside.I faced storms I wasn’t ready for,And mountains I never thought I’d have to climb.I didn’t know I had it in me,This strength, this part of me that could endure,Until life left me no choice but to find…

When Life Shows Us Ourselves poem by walking shadow poetry.
Sometimes, life breaks us open,In ways we never saw coming.It places mountains in our path,And storms we never thought we’d face.Not to defeat us,But to reveal a strength we never knew we had,A side of us hidden deep within. In moments of struggle, of tears we hold back,We find resilience,Buried beneath the layers of our…

Hold Onto the One Who Stayed Poem by Walking shadow poetry.
Let the past stay buried,Leave behind the ones who made you feel small.Don’t look back for those who gave you every reason to crumble,When there’s someone now who lifts you up,Who accepts you, scars and all. Forgive the ones who left,But don’t forget how they let you fall.You reached out, you apologized, you tried to…

The One Who Stayed by walking shadow poetry | Poem
They say time heals wounds,But it wasn’t time that mended me,It was you the one who saw my scars,The one who held my broken heart gently,Without asking it to be whole. I gave my all to a love that left,And in that leaving, I nearly drowned,Apologized, reached out, bent myself backwardsFor a chance that never…

Embracing Me by walking shadow poetry.
I’ve been scared for so long,Afraid of being alone,So I clung to friendshipsThat felt more like chains than home.In the name of company,I settled for less,In relationships that broke me,In bonds that caused stress. I thought I needed others,To fill up my days,But instead, I lost myselfIn a tangled, confusing maze.I was chasing their laughter,Drowning…
