Best Unshaken Poems


Unshaken Love

Our love is so real,
yet,we can`t be together,
Silly tradition...
Families at loggerheads,
how can love be so painful?

Past haunts the present,
but our love is unshaken,
despite parents row,
We`re ready to break this seal
and remain close til death parts...

The Unshaken Heart

A ceaseless flow
of feelings 
like a Summer's fountain
on a bumpy ground
against an uneven surface
no terror
no error
like a steel
love's still
like a balanced diet
unshakable is heart
firm-steady love
sourced from true roots
strongly grounded 
lyrical
typical
chime
voice of love
a promising voice 
providing tranquillity
a heart's peace
against all chains
with immense power
dominant feelings
of an ardent-unshaken heart.

Drencho POET Loads

Unshaken

tossed, blown away by Life's 
howling wayward winds,

groping in the dark caves 
of cold calloused hearts,

still able to keep unshaken 
and firm my Fearless Faith

in tomorrow's smiling sunrise,
in much better things to come.


Unshaken, Unchained

A voice that sharpens in debate’s embrace,  
Feet that once danced now quicken the chase.  
Pages and gavels, the world's in my hands,  
Bound by the law but free where I stand.  
Dreaming of justice, unshaken, unchained.

Unshaken

Stand tall, my sister  don’t break, don’t bend.
Your power is yours from beginning to end.
They’ll judge how you walk, they’ll judge what you do,
But none of them live this life built for you.

So you do you  shine bright, shine through.
The world talks loudest when women break through.
Don’t lower your fire to make others proud,
A queen was not born to live silent and bowed.

You’re thunder, you’re passion, you’re wild burning flame.
Not a body for someone to own or to claim.
They’ll smile while lying straight into your face,
Twist every truth just to stay in their place.

They’ll play dirty games, call your heart a tool,
But a strong woman never plays by their rules.
They think you won’t notice, won’t see through the lies,
But a strong woman always wakes up in time.

So you do you, honey  don’t beg, don’t chase.  
Never let fake love make you question your place.
They’ll drain your soft heart, then blame you for pain,
But you are not here to be broken again.

Strong women survive what should’ve made them die.
They’ll call you “too much” but that’s just their cry.
They fear when a woman stops begging for love,
And walks like she knows she was sent from above.

You are not valuable just ‘cause he stayed,
And not any less when he walks away.
No man defines the size of your light 
You were whole on your own long before his sight.

Be loud when you laugh, be soft when you cry,
Never let shame clip the wings that can fly.
Put yourself first, don’t ever feel blamed,
A woman with standards should never be shamed.

The world wants women exhausted and small,
Afraid to rise up, afraid to stand tall.
But baby, you’re magic, you always were gold,
Your spirit’s a fire no hands can hold.

So rise, beautiful woman  rise fierce, rise free.
Become every version you’re destined to be.
And if they can’t handle the fire in you,
Then stand tall and proud, honey  you do you.
