" Relearning the Old Songs " By Jacky Kapadia In quiet rooms where echoes gently stay, I trace the notes that time had brushed aside, Each melody once lost now finds its way, Through whispered chords where memory will reside. The verses hum of days both bright and worn, Of laughter stitched within familiar lines, A softer truth in every phrase reborn, Where past and present tenderly entwine. My voice, unsure, relearns its ancient art, Each pause a bridge between the then and now, The old songs mend the fractures of the heart, With simple grace no fleeting trends allow. And as I sing what once I left behind, I find myself in every sacred rhyme. ==================END=================== #PoetryCommunity, #PoetryLovers, #PoemOfTheDay, #CreativeWriting, #WritingCommunity, #ModernPoetry, #SpokenWordPoetry, #LiteraryArt, #PoetryInspiration, #SoulfulWriting, #EmotionalPoetry, #ClassicVibes, #Nostalgia, #OldSongs, #TimelessArt, #ArtOfWords, #WritersOfFacebook, #InstaPoetry, #PoetryLife, #DeepThoughts, #MindfulWriting, #HealingThroughWords, #ArtisticExpression, #CreativeMind, #PoetryGram

" After the Fever, the Long Quiet " By Jacky Kapadia After the fever broke, the room grew wide, A hush like snowfall settled deep inside; The clock resumed its patient, measured art, Each second stitching calm into the heart.The body, once a battlefield of flame, Now learned the gentler discipline of name— Of breath, of light that slips through half-drawn shade, Of fragile strength so quietly remade.Outside, the world had not been torn apart; It waited, distant, like a cautious start. A sparrow’s call, a drifting cloud made clear That life returns in whispers, not in cheer.And in that quiet, something soft took hold— A wiser pulse beneath the ashes cold; Not as before, but steadier, more true: A self restored, yet somehow born anew. ==================END=================== #Poetry, #Poem, #PoetryCommunity, #PoetryLovers, #PoetryOfTheDay, #WritersOfFacebook, #CreativeWriting, #SpokenWord, #HealingPoetry, #MentalHealthAwareness, #InnerPeace, #RecoveryJourney, #EmotionalHealing, #SelfReflection, #Mindfulness, #CalmMind, #LifeAfterStorm, #StrengthWithin, #Resilience, #SoulWriting, #DeepThoughts, #Inspiration, #Motivation, #LiteraryArt, #ModernPoetry

" Archives of the Unspoken " By Jacky Kapadia In silent vaults where hidden whispers sleep, Lie words unformed, too fragile yet to rise, A thousand thoughts the restless heart must keep, Bound in the quiet behind watchful eyes. They drift like shadows through the halls of mind, Unwritten letters fading into air, Echoes of truths we feared we’d never find, And dreams once held but vanished in despair. Each pause, each glance, a story left untold, A fragile thread of meaning lost in time, Emotions caged in chambers dark and cold, Where muted voices fail to form their rhyme. Yet in these depths, a quiet strength remains, A spark awaiting courage to be freed, For even silence carries hidden chains, And unspoken words still plant a seed. ==================END=================== #ArchivesOfTheUnspoken, #PoetryCommunity, #SpokenWordPoetry, #DeepPoetry, #SoulfulWriting, #EmotionalPoetry, #PoetryLovers, #ModernPoetry, #CreativeWriting, #WritersOfInstagram, #PoetryOfTheDay, #InstaPoetry, #LiteraryArt, #PoeticExpression, #ArtOfWords, #ThoughtProvoking, #MindfulWriting, #PoetryInspiration, #SilentThoughts, #UnspokenWords

" The Land Remembers Before I Do " By Jacky Kapadia Before my feet recall the ancient way, The soil has traced each step I’ve yet to take; It hums of paths I wandered yesterday, In roots and winds that never truly wake. The hills recite the echoes of my name, Long whispered through the corridors of time; Their silence holds a deeper, older claim, A memory more patient than my mind. The rivers bend as if they’ve known my course, Reflecting lives I’ve lived but can’t retrieve; They carry truths with quiet, steady force, Of all I’ve been, though I have yet to believe. And when I stand, uncertain, newly grown, The land assures me I am not alone. ==================END=================== #Poetry, #ModernPoetry, #PoemOfTheDay, #WritersOfInstagram, #PoetryCommunity, #CreativeWriting, #SpokenWord, #PoetryLovers, #LiteraryArt, #NaturePoetry, #DeepThoughts, #EmotionalWriting, #SoulfulWords, #PoeticExpression, #WritersLife, #InspirationDaily, #ArtOfWords, #MindfulWriting, #PhilosophicalPoetry, #NatureLovers, #EarthConnection, #TimelessWords, #PoetryGram, #WritingInspiration, #CreativeMind

" Queering the Wilderness " By Jacky Kapadia In untamed woods where silence used to reign, New colors bloom beyond the narrow frame, The rivers hum in fluid, shifting tones, A place where none must wander all alone. The mountains shed their rigid, ancient lines, Reshaped by truths too long denied by time, Each breeze now carries stories once concealed, Of hearts unbound, of identities revealed. The forest floor no longer asks for names, It welcomes every spark, rejects no flame, In tangled roots, diversity takes hold, A living tale no single voice has told. So let the wild be queered in vibrant grace, A boundless, sacred, ever-changing space, Where difference thrives, and every soul can be, As vast, as fierce, as nature dares to see. ==================END=================== #QueeringTheWilderness, #QueerArt, #PrideExpression, #InclusiveVoices, #DiversityInNature, #QueerCreativity, #IdentityMatters, #LoveIsLove, #PrideInNature, #PoetryCommunity, #SpokenWordPoetry, #CreativeWriting, #ArtOfExpression, #EqualityForAll, #HumanRightsMatter, #RainbowVoices, #AuthenticSelf, #FreedomToBe, #ModernPoetry, #ViralPoetry, #WritersOfInstagram, #PoetryLovers, #InstaPoet, #PoetryOfTheDay

" The Names We Carry Into Tomorrow " By Jacky Kapadia We walk with echoes stitched beneath our skin, Each name a lantern lit by those before, A quiet chorus where our days begin, A borrowed breath we’re learning to restore. They linger softly in the things we do, In how we speak, in choices left unspoken, A fragile thread that time keeps pulling through, Unseen, yet never truly torn or broken. Some names are wings that lift us toward the light, Others, like shadows, follow close behind, Yet all become the map we hold in sight, A shifting truth that shapes the human mind. And when tomorrow calls us to be more, We’ll answer not as strangers passing through— But as the sum of every name we wore, And all the ones still waiting to come true. ==================END=================== #TheNamesWeCarryIntoTomorrow, #PoetryLovers, #ModernPoetry, #SpokenWordPoetry, #PoemOfTheDay, #PoetryCommunity, #CreativeWriting, #WritersOfInstagram, #InstaPoetry, #PoetryGram, #DeepThoughts, #EmotionalPoetry, #LifeReflections, #InspirationalPoetry, #ArtOfWords, #LiteraryArt, #PoetryIsLife, #VerseOfTheDay, #WritersCommunity, #SoulfulWriting, #MeaningfulWords, #PoeticExpression, #PoetryInspiration, #CreativeMind, #WritingLife

"A Different Kind of Body" By Jacky Kapadia A different kind of body walks this day, Not bound by mirrors, scales, or borrowed sight; It moves through doubt yet does not drift away, But gathers strength from shadows into light. It bears the marks of journeys left untold, In quiet scars where deeper stories live; Not made of flesh alone, nor framed by mold, But shaped by all the courage it can give. This body speaks in languages unseen— In steady breaths, in choices firm and clear; It stands between the fragile and the keen, And learns to hold both wonder and the fear. So let it be—unmeasured and unconfined, A form that time and truth will redefine; For in its depths, a stronger self we find, A different kind of body—yet divine. ==================END=================== #ADifferentKindOfBody, #Poetry, #Poem, #SpokenWord, #CreativeWriting, #PoetryCommunity, #PoetryLovers, #WritersOfInstagram, #InstaPoetry, #ModernPoetry, #PoetryOfTheDay, #BodyPositivity, #SelfAcceptance, #InnerStrength, #MindBodySoul, #EmotionalHealing, #SelfLoveJourney, #Empowerment, #InspirationalPoetry, #DeepThoughts

" The Names We Carry Into Tomorrow " By Jacky Kapadia We walk through time with borrowed light, Each name a whisper, soft yet strong, Etched in the echoes of yesterday’s fight, A quiet truth we’ve known all along. They hold the stories we didn’t choose, Of roots that stretch beneath our skin, Of losses faced and dreams we refuse, And the silent wars we’ve yet to win. Some names are anchors, heavy and deep, Some are wings that teach us to rise, Some we remember, some we must keep, All reflected in tomorrow’s skies. And when the dawn begins anew, We shape what legacy we claim, For in the future we’re passing through, We become more than just a name. ==================END=================== #Poetry, #LovePoem, #ModernPoetry, #CreativeWriting, #PoemOfTheDay, #PoetryCommunity, #WritersOfInstagram, #PoetryLovers, #InstaPoetry, #SpokenWord, #LiteraryArt, #PoetryLife, #WritingInspiration, #DeepThoughts, #SoulfulWords, #EmotionalPoetry, #ArtOfWords, #PoetryIsLife, #InspiringPoetry, #ThoughtProvoking, #WritersCommunity, #CreativeExpression, #PoeticSoul, #EnglishPoetry, #MotivationalPoetry

" The Tongue Split Open " By Jacky Kapadia A silence lived where language used to bloom, A guarded gate behind the teeth of thought; Then something stirred—an ache, a subtle wound— Where truth, long buried, fought to not be caught. The tongue split open—not in flesh, but will, A fracture born of words denied their air; Each syllable, once caged, now sharp and still, Unfolded raw, unvarnished, and laid bare. What once was smooth now trembles into sound, Divided paths of honesty and fear; Each utterance a risk, each echo profound, A trembling bridge from silence into clear. Yet through the break, a strange release is found— For fractured speech can still make meaning whole; And in the wound where quiet once was crowned, Now lives the voice, unshackled in its role. ==================END=================== #poetry, #modernpoetry, #spokenword, #creativewriting, #poem, #literature, #writersofinstagram, #poetsofinstagram, #writingcommunity, #poetrycommunity, #artofwords, #emotionalpoetry, #deepthoughts, #selfexpression, #innervoice, #truth, #healingwords, #metaphor, #symbolism, #darkpoetry, #soulwriting, #wordsmith, #poeticexpression, #literaryart, #mindfulwriting

" The Hours Between Waking and Mourning " By Jacky Kapadia In that pale hush where night loosens its hold, And dawn is not yet brave enough to rise, Time lingers softly, quiet and untold, A fragile breath between the truths and lies. The world is still, yet heavy with a weight, Of dreams that fade but leave their shadows near, A tender hour suspended out of fate, Where hope feels distant, edged with silent fear. Each ticking second echoes through the chest, A hollow rhythm searching for its name, No past to hold, no future offering rest, Only a soul half-anchored, half aflame. Then light arrives, too certain to ignore, And pulls the heart from where it chose to stay, For in that space we cannot be before— The hours must break, and carry us away. ==================END=================== #poetry, #morningpoetry, #dawnthoughts, #reflectivepoetry, #emotionalwriting, #modernpoetry, #writersofinstagram, #poetrycommunity, #deepthoughts, #soulfulwriting, #creativewriting, #poetrylovers, #literaryart, #mindfulmoments, #healingthroughwords, #poeticexpression, #introspective, #morningvibes, #poetsofinstagram, #writinginspiration

" The Last Ordinary Summer " By Jacky Kapadia The days arrived in quiet, golden hues, Unmarked by urgency or grand design, Where time dissolved in skies of softened blues, And simple hours felt endlessly divine. The laughter lingered longer in the air, Unshadowed by the weight of what would change, Each sunset held a calm, familiar care— A gentle world, unbroken and unchanged. We walked through moments careless and complete, Unknowing of the edges drawing near, Where ordinary days and dreams would meet A distant shift we neither saw nor feared. And now that season rests beyond our reach, A fading warmth no memory can replace— The last ordinary summer came to teach How fleeting peace can leave its timeless trace. ==================END=================== #TheLastOrdinarySummer, #SummerPoetry, #PoetryLovers, #ModernPoetry, #EmotionalPoetry, #NatureWriting, #SeasonalVibes, #GoldenHourMoments, #NostalgiaFeels, #CreativeWriting, #PoetryCommunity, #WritersOfInstagram, #InstaPoet, #LiteraryArt, #DeepThoughts, #SoulfulWriting, #PoemOfTheDay, #ArtOfWords, #LifeReflections, #MeaningfulMoments

" Diverged " By Jacky Kapadia At dawn where quiet crossroads softly gleam, Two silent paths pulled thought from steady ground, One paved with echoes of a borrowed dream, The other wild, where truth is rarely found. I lingered where the compass lost its voice, Where doubt and wonder wrestled in my chest, No map could teach the courage of a choice, No crowd could tell which way would serve me best. So I chose the trail that questioned who I’d be, Where shadows spoke and certainty was thin, Each step unmade the man I used to see, And carved a voice I had not held within. Now looking back through time’s unfolding thread, The roads still whisper what I might have been, Yet in the life this divergence has led, I found not loss—but where I must begin. ==================END=================== #diverged, #poetry, #modernpoetry, #poemwriting, #creativewriting, #writersofinstagram, #poetsofinstagram, #poetrycommunity, #poem, #writinginspiration, #literaryart, #wordsmith, #artofwords, #deepthoughts, #introspective, #selfdiscovery, #lifechoices, #pathless, #journeywithin, #philosophicalpoetry
