21. Shadows
I'm living under a shadow,
No shape, no sound, no time.
A black and white silent film
That haunts a troubled mind.
I'm living under a shadow,
No shape, no sound, no time.
A black and white silent film
That haunts a troubled mind.

A gray old woman sits all alone,
Unloved, uncherished, and unknown.
Sitting beside her broken door,
Dreaming of days passed long ago,
In March 2022, I was diagnosed with Renal cancer. I'm doing fine following up with my CTs. My kids' dad was diagnosed with hepatic cancer, lung, the works, and passed away in March. My (our)...

Unseen, unheard, my voiceless cries
I tell you I'm fine through honeyed lies
You smile and nod, just what you wanted to hear
You don't really care, that much is clear
There will be dark days,
when you feel alone
with your aching heart
but that doesn’t mean
I think that is true to every person's life, and what he or she needs is patience that brings a glorious morning after a gloomy night. I had also once gone through such dark days, which later...
A silent tear falls from her eyes
As she falls on her knees and cries
No one can see her pain-filled life
It doesn't show in her hazel eyes
I have a 2 year old son and I'm only 17 and get made fun everyday.. and who is the author of this poem??
I often walk in early morn
engrossed in time's once new.
with thoughts and dreams of things long past,
the carefree days of youth.
It’s cold and it’s dark,
In this place that I hide,
I’ve built up these walls,
I let no-one inside.
I appreciate the honesty and transparency of this important poem. It is very meaningful to me.
Untitled - that's me.
I have a name, but it's never used.
I have a mind, but like the rest of me...it's confused
After I knew the person you showed the world,
I searched for the person you are.
He was nowhere around
Where was he to be found?
My heart is but an island
Inside this castaway.
Surrounded by the ocean blue,
I hope to sail someday.
As a child, I recall, I used to think the coolest thing to be,
truly nothing could be more fun than invisibility.
I could sneak up on my sisters and scare them if I chose.
My life is falling apart,
Can't get rid of this fragile heart,
Headache from all the tears,
Restless sleep, thinking about fears.
