“When footprints fade, so too does the weight of being…”

Start your poem with this line. Let it carry you into the quiet ache of letting go—of people, expectations, memories, or versions of yourself.

Explore themes of impermanence, release, identity, and the transience of existence.

  • What emotions rise when presence disappears?
  • What does it feel like to lighten the weight of being seen, remembered, or needed?
  • What remains when the marks we leave start to vanish?
  • What lifts when we no longer carry the pressure to “be” something fixed?
