Beautiful. Great entry into the challenge! π
ππΌππΌππΌ amazing !!
Gosh, this was breathtakingly beautiful! I had to read it twice! I loved it so much!
Well, fuck this is good! <β my 4-letter words. The constraints of the challenge didnβt limit you at all. This is a profound expression of the enduring love we all hope for.
Wow, how unique! I love this angle you took... the "after" portion people don't think about. But you still incorporated love into it... truly well done!

Beautiful piece. Well done.
"May a tree grow from the ash of our bone" very pretty poem, bittersweet blend of sentiment.
Well written, Ashley! Sad. Cheery. True. Love does not end with death. It's above and beyond that.
