Still Walking

Some mornings hit like questions,

No answers in my hands.

The mirror asks me who I am,

And I don’t understand.

I count my steps like promises

I’m scared I’ll never keep.

But even fear has softer sides

When it walks with me.

I used to think I had to know

Exactly where I’m going.

Now I’m learning moving forward

Is a kind of hoping.

Life feels heavy, life feels wide,

Some days I’m barely getting by.

Every dream’s a little scared

Of what it takes to stay alive.

But I breathe in, take the fall,

Learn to stand after I crawl.

I don’t have it figured out—

I’m still walking through it all.

I’ve made friends with my mistakes,

They know my name by now.

Every wrong turn taught me something

I couldn’t learn staying down.

I see the light in ordinary days,

In laughter, cracks, and flaws.

Turns out growing doesn’t always look

The way we thought it was.

I don’t need a perfect plan,

Just courage for today.

If I’m learning as I go,

Then I’m already on my way.

Life feels heavy, life feels wide,

Some nights I still run and hide.

But every fear I carry now

Means I cared enough to try.

I fall down, then I rise,

Find my strength between the lines.

I don’t have it figured out—

But I’m still walking, and that’s mine.

Maybe that’s the point of it all,

Not to be fearless, just to be real.

To keep moving even when

You don’t know how it’ll feel.

Life is scary, life is strange,

But I’m not who I was yesterday.

Every step rewrites my doubt,

Every breath is progress now.

I’m not lost, I’m not behind,

I’m just learning in real time.

I don’t have it figured out—

But I’m still walking, and I’m fine.

Yeah…

I’m still walking…

Still learning…

Still here.
