Wait One More Second by walking shadow poetry.
Hey, you,You are an amazing human; not born by accident.I know it feels like the world is closing in,Like the weight on your chestKeeps getting heavier,Like your voice doesn’t matter,It’s Like no one sees you, But listen,You don’t have to carry this alone.You don’t have to end your story here.Pain has a way of lying,Of…

Pray for Strength to Create Your Own Lane by walking shadow poetry
Sometimes, creating your own lane feels like the hardest thing to do.You’ll have to make choices that might confuse people.They’ll question you, doubt you, maybe even criticize you.But here’s the thing, it’s not about them.It’s about you. Pray for the strength to step out boldly.You’re carving out a path that’s meant for you alone.And yes,…

Spoken Word: “I Have Outgrown Many Things”
I’ve outgrown many things,And it’s not that I’m better than anyone else,It’s just that I’ve learned to let go of what no longer feels like home. I’ve outgrown relatives who are quick to point fingers,Quick to criticize,But somehow, they never show up when I need a hand.You know those people who only call when it’s…

Bridge of Redemption by walking shadow poetry
I walked on roads I shouldn’t have,Left behind hearts torn apart.I carried shame like a heavy stone,A burden that crushed my heart. The bridges I burned stood in ruins,Ashes of trust I betrayed.Each step forward felt like a storm,And my hope began to fade. But then, I met a kind, wise man,Who spoke of grace…

When Going Home Feels Hard by walking shadow poetry.
I used to dread the holidays,The thought of going back home.Not because I didn’t love them,But I felt like I’d face it alone. The questions always came too fast,“When will you settle down?”“Your younger cousin’s doing so well,But you’re still stuck in town.” I’d see the way they’d look at me,Like I hadn’t done enough.While…

The Real Problem by walking shadow poetry.
The problem isn’t you leaving without a word,It’s the expectation that I’d chase after you,Begging you to stay,Clinging to something that wasn’t even real. You thought I’d fall apart,That I’d crumble at your absence,That I’d run after you,Desperate to fix what was never meant to be. But the truth is,I’ve learned that some goodbyes are…

Cost of Peace by walking shadow poetry.
Stop wasting your time,Trying so hard to bring me down.You might think your words and actionsCan take me apart,But all you’re doing is costing yourself peace. I’ve learned that there’s power in staying calm,Even when the world around me shakes.You see, while you’re busy building walls,I’m focused on building strength.And all your efforts to see…

The Poison We Drank by walking shadow poetry.
We let greed take over,Let it quietly whisper,“More, more, more,”Until it became a voice louder than our own.We lost sight of what truly matters,Chasing after things that never filled the emptiness. We allowed contentment to slip away,Thinking we needed more to be happy,That what we had wasn’t enough.We didn’t stop to appreciate what we were…

Dwelling in Possibilities
Regret can hold you back,Stuck in the past, lost in the “what-ifs.”It’s heavy, it hurts,And it keeps you from moving forward. But what if we choose to see things differently?What if we focus on what could be,Instead of what went wrong? Possibilities are like open doors,Inviting us to try again,To dream again,To believe that better…
