Shared Vulnerability: A Poem

There’s no getting it right.

In the everyday hustle, where time seems to fly,

We all have moments of feeling low or high.

From deadlines to worries, we carry the weight,

It’s normal to have tough days, to feel less than great.

Mistakes we make, they teach us so much,

They shape our journey, with a tender touch.

Taking a deep breath, keeping hearts open wide,

Finding solace in love, a comforting guide.

We all face struggles, big and small,

Each one a chance to rise, to stand tall.

Seeking lessons in moments that seem dark,

Turning pain into art, a meaningful spark.

We’re all a work in progress, learning as we go,

Being both teacher and student in life’s ebb and flow.

Letting love in, even when it seems hard,

For in our shared humanity, connection is our reward.

Through the shadows of doubt, the fears that we fight,

Remember, the sun will rise, bringing back the light.

In the stories we live, in each day’s new start,

We find solace in knowing, we’re connected by heart.

Hope you liked the poem.
