KN Magazine: Poetry
The Sound That Followed Me Home
A man returns to a road he swore he’d never travel again, only to find that memory is louder than silence. In “The Sound That Followed Me Home,” Topher Shields explores guilt, inheritance, and the haunting persistence of unspoken truths through spare, atmospheric verse.
Light and Shadow
A lyrical poem exploring the contrast and connection between two wounded souls, whose wings—light and shadow—mirror their shared histories of hurt, healing, and longing. A meditation on love, grief, and the way two people can become each other’s dawn and dusk.
Haunts of the Past
A brief, haunting meditation on memory, regret, and the echoes of a past that refuses to let go—an intimate struggle between remembrance and resilience.
